I'm such a coward that unless I get a good writer, I don't want to make a picture.

I'm not as good a writer as I'd like to be; therefore, I like to use images to tell stories.

Writing is much, much harder than taking pictures because you have to man-haul it all out of your insides.

I try not to picture a reader when I'm writing. It's like trying to make a great table but not picturing anybody sitting at it.

I suppose I have an active imagination, and writing allows me to live it out.

I think of myself as a writer who photographs. Images, for me, can be considered poems, short stories or essays. And I've always thought the best place for my photographs was inside books of my own creation.

In my work, as a writer, I only photograph, in words, what I see.

I don't think of myself as a writer.

I don't really consider myself a writer.
