But now I really don't want to work unless I really, really care about a project.

In my career, I thought I've never wanted to get anywhere in particular. I just wanted to work with interesting people on interesting projects.

Life is too short to be doing work that doesn't make you feel happy and fulfilled. I'd rather wait for the right project, as opposed to just taking whatever is handed to me.

Good work is good work wherever it is.

I do strive to find projects that are trying to carve out some new space. I enjoy projects that leap away from the crowd a little bit.

As soon as one project is finished I like to go straight on to something else.

I have to find work wherever it might be hiding.

I don't ever know where I'm going. Because one of the wonderful things about writing, which is different than working in programming, you don't need to know. You could just write and discover where you're going. And it's a great deal of fun.
