Joe is the hero and Sammy is the sidekick. That's how I feel about it.

Comic books were just the means for me to tell the story.
american-author disappear giving hold might opportunity readers written
I like giving readers an opportunity to get a hold of me in that way and to read things I've written which might disappear otherwise.

That was all very nice of them. They didn't have to do anything because I wasn't officially involved at all.
american-author
It is unusual for Joe to be that way, but that's what interested me.
american-author fairly
It was fun. That was something I came to fairly late.
mistake writing firsts
When I finish a first draft, it's always just as much of a mess as it's always been. I still make the same mistakes every time.
mistake writing thinking
I don't think you could teach someone to be a genius, but you can certainly teach them to not make rookie mistakes and to look at writing the way a writer looks at writing, and not just the way a reader looks at writing. There are a lot of techniques and skills that can be taught that will be helpful to anybody, no matter how gifted they are, and I think writing programs can be very good for people.

I thought, I fanced, that in a moment, I would be standing on nothing at all, and for the first time in my life, I needed the wings none of us has.
editors ideas wife
I was surprised that my wife thought it was a good idea, then again with my agent, another woman, then my editor, another woman - in spite of the fact that all three of them reacted positively I still have this fear.
were-meant-to-be world prison
The world like our heads was meant to be escaped from, they are prisons world and head alike.

So it was scary, but that's how it goes. To my great delight, I discovered that it did all belong.
