You're an old-timer if you can remember when setting the world on fire was a figure of speech.

It's very selfish when I write. I'm not aware, ever, of writing for another person; I'm not even really aware of writing for myself.
Sometimes I don't even pull my shoes off for six weeks at a time, except, you know, just to take a shower. I just take breaks between 24 hours a day, just a break now and then, it don't take me long to rest; maybe 20 to30 minutes sometime, or maybe an hour.
