I think I'm very curious about other people. I like to sit and eavesdrop, you know.

Sometimes I eavesdrop on people. I could rationalize it - oh, this is good anthropological research for characters I'm writing - but it's basically just nosiness. It also helps me gauge where I'm at: Am I normal?

I do a lot of eavesdropping. That's one of the things I miss about New York: just checking people out.

I sometimes read on the subway, but I'm a hopeless eavesdropper and get easily distracted by strangers' conversations.

I run everywhere and eavesdrop. It's the best way to see a city.

The process of receiving information for me is seeing, hearing, and feeling their energy in my frame of reference. That doesn't mean I see the individual, unfortunately.

I do love to eavesdrop. It's inspirational, not only for subject matter but for actual dialogue, the way people talk.

I find it hard to imagine how someone listens to my stuff, or views what I do, or me, or anything.

I like to think I'm a listener, and I'm fascinated by observing people - I suppose you just lock that in.

Inspiration comes from the world around me. I'm an inveterate eavesdropper.
