The best thing about being a writer is also the worst thing: you've got a whole universe to explore. What's so bad about that? But it's a vast, bottomless pit too. So I think you have to be very disciplined, and to know your limitations. Or put more positively, to build on what you know.

"To eat or not to eat?" That's the easy question. But WHAT to eat gets really complicated as soon as you think about it.
Food is very much an interdisciplinary area - though it is often treated in a narrow, specialised way. There is the nutritionist's perspective, the economist's, the cook's, the ecological... the list is as long as we want. And each perspective is 'valid', but only partial. So I think it's a good place to bring in a little philosophy.
