I had rather neglected the baddies—and they’re the characters I’m most interested in.” He also compares novel writing to directing: “I don’t dig the loneliness and isolation of the writer. Writing is a form of amputation—only a part of you is at work,” but when you direct, he continues, you use all of your body and mind for 15 hours a day. You are constantly being interrupted, “yet it fills you with energy.”<br /> <br /> {{1970s|state=collapsed}}<br /> {{1980s|state=expanded}}<br /> {{1990s|state=collapsed}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Works]]<br /> [[Category:Works in the 1980s]]<br /> [[Category:Works in 1987]]<br /> [[Category:Article-Interviews]]</div>
