People

I come from hardworking, determined people on both sides of my family... the kind who live with a hard reality from which much strength comes.

Focal
|

I Am

Always
|
Nov 07, 2020

And so, when I was a young writer I always worked hard on imagery, and I knew that the roots of imagery were the senses - and that if my readers could feel, taste and see what I was talking about, I would be able to tell them a story.

Job
|
Nov 07, 2020

And when you clear away the cobwebs of the description of every job in the world, at the bottom of that job is service. It's service. And I took that ethic and applied it to my writing craft.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I care what my reader thinks. There is no fancy recommendation you can give me that would matter to me as much as Mary Jane from Youngstown writing me a letter. There is not one. Don't need it, don't want it, don't require it, does not fill up my soul. It's about her, not about the rest of it.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

Love
|

I used to walk to Altman's on Saturdays for lunch at the Charleston Garden, which had a coconut cake that is still my favorite food in the world.

Emotional
|

Dinner
|
Nov 07, 2020

Be in community, go out to dinner together, do things together. We lose that, we lose a lot. It's important to come together.

Go
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have a new book coming out, so I do movie, book, movie, book, movie, book, every place we go.

Free
|

Problems
|
Nov 07, 2020

Nov 07, 2020

Great
|

'Off With Their Heads' by Frances Marion. I love a showbusiness autobiography - and this one resonates because it's written by one of the great Hollywood screenwriters.

New

'All the Stars in the Heavens' takes place during the golden age of Hollywood, around an imagined story about Loretta Young; Clark Gable; Alda, a young woman with a secret who is preparing to become a nun but is cast out of her convent; and the scenic artist she meets on the set of 'The Call of the Wild.' It's a big, lush historical novel.

Nov 07, 2020

On the cover of 'All the Stars' is a red grosgrain ribbon. It's Loos's ribbon. Ageless, fabulous Loos - she tricked the very people who would have cast her aside like an old shoe if they knew the truth.

Know

Koverman is one of my favorite Hollywood characters because she was the brains of MGM, and not many people know about her.

Me

Life
|

Mother

No one worries about you like your mother, and when she is gone, the world seems unsafe, things that happen unwieldy. You cannot turn to her anymore, and it changes your life forever.

Food
|
Nov 07, 2020

There is no one on earth who knew you from the day you were born; who knew why you cried, or when you'd had enough food; who knew exactly what to say when you were hurting; and who encouraged you to grow a good heart. When that layer goes, whatever is left of your childhood goes with her.

Nov 07, 2020
