added feels few floating gathering knowing people post readers shark tattoos themselves wonderful
There are a few 'Raw Shark Texts' tattoos floating around the Internet now, so I'm gathering them up to post on my forum.

I'm a bit suspicious of people who are narrow in their musical tastes.
age books digital excited order symbols unlike work
I'm excited about how books work in a digital age. When you read a book, unlike a film, you are decoding symbols in order to 'see' the story, so it is collaborative in a way that a film can never be.
call covered dialogue drawers full grab hand notebooks quick scenes tend
I have notebooks and sketchbooks for ideas. I also have drawers full of envelopes covered in quick outlines, scenes or scraps of dialogue that I don't want to forget. I tend to grab whatever's to hand and just get the thing down before it's lost. It's not what you would call a streamlined system.

company greater maybe minute offering people shares wait wants worth
People say 'well, so and so wants to give me 1,000 shares but the other company wants to give me 3,000. Well, wait a minute guys, what do you think they will be worth in the end?' And maybe the company offering you 1,000 has greater potential?

I'd love a signed first edition of 'City of Glass' by Paul Auster. My favourite book of all time.
coolest people pick seen touring
One of the coolest things about touring around, actually, is getting to meet people, and getting to pick up on things that other people like. So many times, people come up to me after a reading and say, 'You must have read this,' or 'You must have seen this,' or 'Do you listen to this?' Usually I haven't.
