... I grew tired of religion some time not long after birth. I believe in people, I believe in humans, I believe in a car, but I don't believe something I can't have absolutely no evidence of for millenniums. And it's funny, people think analysis or psychiatry is mad, and they go to church...
There will be people who hate everything you do. And some people will really love it. But that's not really different from the people who really hate it.
I think I was born at a time when an American male had so many advantages and opportunities that weren't available to men before or after, just a very brief period.
Reviews are destructive by their very nature.
You know, I'm really not interested in someone telling me that something's good or bad.

All you have is the writer's imagination. You have a very limited time to take this imaginary person and bring the details of their life, as you perceive them, to life. You attempt to do to that as fully and as vibrantly as you can. It's depressing to read how much you've failed. And it's not even particularly instructive or necessary to read how you succeeded because in the end don't you have to judge that?

Anybody doing something brings something to it. It's not for me to say if it's "growth". Just by the nature of everyone has a different take on the material. Some people would.
I don't remember my life before I had children.
I never really did a western western.
