I've Got Some Words Of Wisdom.

If I'm Hanging Around Too Much, My Wife And Kids Say, 'hey, Why Don't You Go Downstairs And Start A New Novel?'

The More Settled I've Become, The More Problematic My Characters Have Become. There Was A Period When I Wrote Sensitive And Gentle Songs And These Came At A Time When Life Was At Its Most Destructive. I Think You Write About What You Need, On Some Level.

I'm Not Saying This In A Condescending Kind Of Way, But It's Quite Simple: The Making Of America Was A Heroic Thing. Australia Has A Much Murkier, Much More Complex View Of Its History. It's Just Full Of All These Open Wounds We Don't Really Know What To Do With.

I'm Kind Of Old-school And Love Nothing More Than Sitting, Opening A Book, And Reading It. But I Also Love Listening To Audio Books.

Out Of Sorrow Entire Worlds Have Been Built Out Of Longing Great Wonders Have Been Willed They're Only Little Tears Darling Let Them Spill And Lay Your Head Upon My Shoulder.
