I Cast Unusual People In

You Know, When Cameras Are Rolling, Improvisation Doesn't Feel Natural. The Pressure Is Too Great. You're On A Time Schedule. You've Got 60 Crewmen.

I Come From The Place Where I Am Thinking 'i Have Put My Blood On The Pages.'

Excited About Black Friday. Also Excited About Jew Tuesday.

I've Always Enjoyed Stories That Take Place In The Future But My One Disappointment Was That The Future Books Described Never Came. We're Not On Other Planets, There Are No Flying Cars, And The Only Robots We Have In Our Homes Just Sweep The Floor. So I Wanted To Write About A Future That I Thought Could Really Happen. People Ask Me When I Tell Them The Title Of The Book, 'are We All Dead?' The Good News Is, No. We're Still Here. And I Even Think The Future In My Book Is Strangely Hopeful, Although I'm Sure There Will Be People Who Strongly Disagree.

I Got So Good At Writing To A Budget, My Brain Was Restricting Myself. I'd Write, "it's A Stormy Night." Then I'd Cross Out Stormy. I'd Write: "it's A Calm Night." Then I'd Cross Out Night. It's Noon. Because You Know How Much Night Costs. You Know How Much Rain Costs. Nothing Comes Free In Movies.
