In my own writing, I think of myself as a realist who exaggerates a little.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I write from what I take to be the realist's point of view, looking at life as it really is - or the way I see it to be.
I'm a realist.
Do I exaggerate? Boy, do I, and I'd do it more if I could get away with it.
I think I'm very real as a person, and that comes across in my work.
I am a mixture of idealist and realist.
What I am is something unbearable for the world of journalism and the world of cliches. I'm a realist.
I am a realist as well as an idealist, and I think that it is incumbent upon those of us in opposition to try to work within what are always arduous circumstances to stretch the limits of the possible.
I don't quite operate within the realist mode. I kind of push the stories out towards the cusp of believability - that's the area of interest for me.
Exaggeration is my only reality.
The fact is, for all the critics' talk about me as a realist, I'm making everything up - everything. It is all about imagining with me.
