actively experience jumps
I like the eclipses, the synaptic jumps of short stories. The reader has to participate very actively in the experience.
I just want to be on my own branch twittering.
I had no thought of being a writer. I never wanted to do anything. I'm tremendously lazy.
believe people
I believe that people are what happened to their grandparents.
time
I always need huge amounts of time to do anything.
absolutely consider fiction human include involves matter matters people politics power relationships
Politics is a matter of human transaction. I consider absolutely everything political, because all fiction involves relationships between people, and relationships between people always include matters of power, of equity, of communication.
absolutely aware children extremely filled power
I think that children are acutely sensitive to injustice because they live in a world that is absolutely filled with injustice. They have very, very little power, and they are extremely aware of power relations.
I would say the reason that I've never written a novel is because I've never written a novel.
I'm a very spoiled writer. I need to be indolent, to waste a lot of paper. I'm inefficient.
