Pretty soon, hopefully, the scene at hand begins to interest me enough so that I start trimming, rewording rearranging what I've written. I don't write a straight begin-at-the- beginning-go-til-you-come-to-end-then-stop type narrative very often; I write scenes that interest me, and grow them together. This random access style of composition is probably left over from my having started as a playwright.(less)

Susan’s Quotes

“Also there was something vampiric about rock music. It must have sounded supernatural even to those who don’t believe in the supernatural. I mean the way the electricity could stretch a single note forever; the way harmony could be layered upon harmony until you felt yourself dissolving in the sound. So eloquent of dread it was, this music…”
― Anne Rice, The Vampire Lestat
