My strength as a TV writer was my total lack of interest in television.
I have never written out of a desire to be controversial.

People complain about my exclamation points, but I honestly think that's the way people think. I don't think people think in essays; it's one exclamation point to another.
I love deliberately badly written books.
I would be happy to be labeled as a writer of offbeat stories. I don't know how to do anything else.
People criticised me for using too many exclamation marks and the word 'awesome' too much, but that's just me.
