I'd forgotten I'd done the anime called Spirited Away, the English version of a Japanese film.

I will never master this craft. Orchestras are very, very forthcoming with me.

Writing is hard work. Generating stories that catch people's attention and holding it are very difficult.

Something happens to us all when we experience something as a unit that doesn't occur when we're on our couches or holding our little portable DVD players.
