I enjoy being a hyphenate. I've always thought of my career as a plate spinner in the circus.

What's important with writing is that it comes from a place you absolutely love. I'm writing for film and TV. In America, they call people like me 'multi-hyphenators.'
My so-called career is a haphazard thing.
As long as I'm able to actually maintain a career where I can write full-time, I'll be thrilled.
I am an American, not an Asian-American. My rejection of hyphenation has been called race treachery, but it is really a demand that America deliver the promises of its dream to all its citizens equally.
My own career reflects a strange dichotomy between the world we've long known and the world that will become.
I'd rather spend my leisure time doing what some people call my work and I call my fun.
It's sort of good to see your vocation as a daily task and have fairly modest expectations for financial or reward in other coin - glory, love, whatever.
I've spent various periods of my career being thought of as various things, various degrees of substance and ideas.
