I suppose I started writing seriously at 16 years old. I thought I wrote a novel at 16 and sent it to New York! They sent it back because it wasn't novel.
I think my sensibility is very literary; all my books were built as books, and I wasn't thinking about them being movies.
If you suffer from depression, anything that makes you feel has to the most important thing in your life, because it's the only thing that can save you.
