I'm totally committed to the cause of individuality. That's the only thing I stand by: independence.
As a writer, my main objective is to tell the story urgently - as if whispering it into one ear - and to know the characters intimately.
I've always gone out with much younger guys. But I rushed into relationships before really getting to know the person. What would come up as a warning sign within the first two weeks of dating would usually be the exact reason the relationship would end!
