The fact that people will pay you to talk to people and travel to interesting places and write about what intrigues you, I am just amazed by that.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I get to tell the most interesting stories I know how to tell with the most interesting sentences I know how to compose - and people who aren't related to me read them. To be paid to write things that matter to me is extraordinary.
In this business, my business, I get to meet all kinds of incredible people, fascinating people, glamorous people and sexy people and highly intellectual people. And you meet them and you go 'interesting, interesting, interesting'. They're interesting, but not very many people stop you in your tracks.
Things that are interesting, people will pass around the Internet, around the world. And the blogosphere is only the tip of the iceberg.
I could always imagine more interesting places to be than where I was. And more interesting people than me being there. Eventually, this led to making up stories and writing things down.
I write about stuff that happens to me, so I try to live as interesting a life as possible.
What you don't know intrigues you more than what you do know.
I'm writing what comes into my head, or through me, or from somewhere else, and it is the most extraordinary, exciting thing. I love it, and I'm very greedy, and I really enjoy it!
I'm finding writing very fascinating.
Sometimes I feel that the people I'm writing are more real to me than the people around me. When you take that imaginative leap, you're living so much in that world.
Everything I write is based on something I've personally experienced, or things that my friends have experienced that I just find horribly entertaining.
