Quote

I have no desire to write fiction. I did what I did, and it's done. There's more to life than writing and publishing fiction. There is another way entirely, amazed as I am to discover it at this late date.

Writing fiction was a way to take the ideas that troubled me or confused me and put them under pressure.

I've lost much of my heart and the spark or fire that once 'created,' or produced, the art of fiction.

I began writing fiction when I started running out of material in my own life.

I just want fiction to remain a vital force for entertainment and not just for contemplation. Both things can exist.

A big reason why I started writing is I felt that fiction had stopped evolving. All other entertainments were getting better, constantly, as technology allowed. Movies. Video games. Music.

So much emotion goes into writing fiction.

I love making fiction films as well as nonfiction ones, and hope to keep challenging myself to make better and better work.

I rather like getting away from fiction.

Fiction is burdened for me with a sense of duty.
