The novels are always morphing into something else now, some kind of hybrid, more of a ground that isn't so easily specified. I suppose you could call it creative non-fiction, and rather focused on the natural world, which is what I'm most interested in reading these days. At least that would be the closest thing, but my books also include some fiction, so they're difficult to pinpoint.
It was Elvis that got me interested in music. I've been an Elvis fan since I was a kid.
I'm interested in spirituality and in religion and our relationship to the divine.
I am not interested in poetry for poetry's sake.
I was interested in writing a child's understanding of a cataclysmic event - something experienced in fragments, whispers, viewed from around corners - and it seemed to me a child would try to understand it through stories and games, which distort and change the experience, then become the experience.
I'm not interested in being Donald Trump or anybody else's vice president, that's not what I'm aiming at.
And what I'm interested in is investing in people.
As someone who was born and raised in Los Angeles, I was really interested in the idea of people who move here to get into the business, and some of them do become famous and then oftentimes they fall out of that fame in very terrible ways.
Nobody really knows whether they are a poet. I knew I was interested from the age of 15.
I knew I wanted to be in show business so I took the path of least resistance. I loved comedy. But you never know you are funny until people laugh. It's just what I was interested in. I could make people laugh, I guess, but doing it at school and doing it onstage are very different things.
[Alfred] Hitchcock was very interested in the image on the screen. As is any good cinema director. That is the language they speak. It is not literature, it is images on screen.
Unless you know a lot more about something than I do, I am not really that interested. I have too much information already.
I know people like spectacle, but I'm interested in moving people.
Creativity is a great motivator because it makes people interested in what they are doing. Creativity gives hope that there can be a worthwhile idea. Creativity gives the possibility of some sort of achievement to everyone. Creativity makes life more fun and more interesting.
My idea of a writer: someone interested in everything.
I recycle and try to be nice to the earth. But flora and fauna have always interested me, and it is because of so many years of summer camp and growing up in DC with Rock Creek Park fairly near me, or Glover Park; I lived in Glover Park for a while and that park was in my backyard.
Only a fool does not fear actors, but you can't beat them, and if you can't beat them, join them, as they say. As I've got older I've become very interested in that part of the work
My wife and I are a team, and it's good for my work because I'm interested in working from a stable base.
You come to the photograph as an aesthetic object with no context. . . Then you step in and read the text and then out again to revisit the image in a completely different way. I'm interested in that space between text and image. The piece becomes the negative space between the two.
I think that this vein is close to being mined out already, but I'll say that my knowledge of and talent for linguistics are quite limited and I'm not aware of being a hell of a lot more interested in that topic than I am in others.
