I'm loath to do interviews. What comes out is generally not what I meant or thought I was saying or thought they were asking.
People say to me, 'You don't seem that interested in interviews.' Well, you know, I'm not, often. I'm not going to talk tactics with the press, so you are left with talking about how you are feeling; for me, it is not the most interesting thing to be doing.
Ah, I don't do interviews, really.
I don't really like doing interviews.
I don't do interviews.
