ideas feels sequels
And I'm not anti-sequel, but I just feel like there are very few ideas that are meant to be continued.
kids hanging-out generator
Even as a kid I was never the generator of humor, but I always knew who was funny, who to hang out with.
loneliness thinking people
Loneliness is, I think, people's biggest fear, whether they are conscious of it or not.

I've always felt you unearth story, like you're on an archeological dig.
book long fans
I've been a fan of movies longer than anything else. One thing I learned a long time ago is that you can't translate a book literally to the screen. It won't work because it's a different medium. And it would be the same in reverse.
home fishing hobbies
Sadly, my hobby is what I do for work, so I don't go off and go fishing. I go home and veg, and then I go back to work.
stories fundamentals static
Change is fundamental in story. If things go static, stories die.
running strong stories
A strong theme is always running through a well-told story,
