About the work. Yeah, I mean I still am a prima donna. I am a very exacting task master with myself when I'm doing a book. Now, getting involved in TV and movies, you can't be that way to the same degree because it's a much more collaborative effort. I make the transition from my own work to the more collaborative efforts much easier because of my experience working in advertising.
Commerce is the heart of American culture to a large extent.
There is something exciting about being in that machinery. It's very simple things I'm talking about, like being in rush hour traffic with everyone in the morning. You realize there a trillion other Americans in their cars at that same moment listening to various things on the radio. So now that I'm not doing that, and I spend most of my time by myself, writing, I long for it again. Not so seriously that I would want to have to work like that again, to have that kind of job.
