I learned in the computer game business early on that all senses are not equal. The best example is, you're listening to a radio play and you're driving down the road, and suddenly you realize you haven't seen the road in five minutes. It's because your visual cortex has been partying with your imagination, basically.

When we shift back to feeling the sensations in our body and connect to what's in front of us, the creative channel opens up.

You get so tied up with the minutiae of the day-to-day, there's never a chance to sit back and let your subconscious run wild.

I'm always consciously trying to make what I feel is missing.

I'm not by nature a terribly intuitive person; I need to build a situation in which I will behave more intuitively, and that has really changed the life of my work - I found a way to trick myself into being intuitive.

Nowadays, I know the true reason I read is to feel less alone, to make a connection with a consciousness other than my own.

Sometimes you lose sight of what's going on around you.

We get so intellectual that we forget that we're physical creatures.
