- Nov 07, 2020
I've been a professional writer for 20 years, and there are contours in that time, crescents and troughs.
- Most
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Fantasy gets a mixed reception - a lot of fantasy is formulaic but most of the award-winning fantasy on the contrary tends to be the stuff at the edges of the genre, rather than swimming in the middle.
- Democracy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's just that to a lot of British people George Bush represents the worst of all things American. He's the right-wing Christian crusader, the toxic Texan who refused Kyoto, the poll-cheat eel who undermined democracy on the back of something called 'chads,' a notion we've never entirely grasped.
- Fashion

- Nov 07, 2020
The poetry and transgression that was so much of surrealism's anarchic force has been recruited into mainstream culture. It has been made commonplace by television and magazine merchandising, by computer games and Internet visuals, by film and MTV, by the fashion shoot.
- Eye
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Every day the eye is subject to a thousand tiny shocks as a thousand industries compete for the eye-kick, the visual hook that will lock the consumer into product for that crucial second where the tiny - or not so tiny - leap of the imagination is made.
- Interpreted
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The overintellectualization of surrealism can be a bromide. A dream interpreted is a deflated dream.
- Difficult
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Repression in the human psyche is tightly bundled. When it has been pulled out of the sprung package so often it is perhaps difficult to push it back in the box.
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Perhaps writers should never be allowed to get together in a workplace context. It's not like studying computer science, after all. The emotions are at large, and are shared and are questioned. There is a vulnerability.
- Others
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It is, of course, the first recourse of every elitist to see social barbarism in others.
- Language
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
George Orwell's '1984' frequently tops surveys of our greatest books: it's not a celebration of poetic language. It's decidedly anti-literary, a masterpiece of personal and political narrative sequence. And its subject matter is crucial, because what '1984' shows is that language can be a dirty trick.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'd defend the right for any novelist to experiment with form or language, but if people don't take to it, don't react by making out that they are thick.
- Down
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If critics of 'readable fiction' want literature to change the ways people dream, they need first to come down from the mountain and speak to the people.
- Playing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've been playing 'Doom' for some years.
- I Am
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My story reflexes come less from fantasy or horror than from the darker sort of psychological thriller - not as plot-driven as most, rather more mood-driven. My interest in the supernatural is a complication - though I am less interested in ghosts than in people who see ghosts.
- City
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Rome is a place almost worn out by being looked at, a city collapsing under the weight of reference.
