The one thing that I do is take really complicated systems and subjects and make them accessible to regular people.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I really like knowledge and reading books and just generally immersing myself in information.
My favourite subjects at school were algebra and logic: making a big problem into something small.
I want to be a part of something that's good and intellectually challenging.
A lot of what I do - I have to try and make sense of things before I can make nonsense of them.
Try to learn something about everything and everything about something.
I obsess over things... especially my book projects. It can be very time consuming.
Exposure to a diversity of disciplines has been exceptionally helpful to me.
I take in a lot of stuff from real life, movies, television, news and it all gets mixed in my head and somehow turns into a story idea.
I just follow the subjects I'm interested in.
I've figured out in the course of my life that the one thing I'm good at doing is writing books, and it would be crazy to trade that in for something else.
