What do you feel like reading?
- FICTION
- Definitely not my strong suit. Sure, I love making up stories, but mostly for screenplays or stage plays. The reason being that I’m lazy. When you write a screenplay and you want to show a tank, for instance, you simply write, “A tank rolls into view.” Then the people in charge of getting the tank roll it out and the audience gets the point. You can’t do the same with a novel. You have to describe the tank, find out its proper name, learn how it moves, etc. That’s a little too much research for me. So if my fiction work seems lacking, that’s why.
- NON-FICTION
- This is my bread and butter. I normally write about my personal life and that’s something I know very well. You’ll notice that I really slow down the pace of the story to delve into the minutia of my mind. I think that’s the most striking quality of my writing. After I’m dead and college students are studying my work, that nuance will be what defines me.
- POETRY
- I hate poetry. A lot.
- FEATURES
- Some of my professional work. You’ll find interviews, junket coverage and articles written for magazines. A lot of this was strictly freelance. Stress on the “free.”
