An Artist May Have Burdens The Ordinary

I'm Not Really A Nostalgic Person.

I Had No Proof That I Had The Stuff To Be An Artist, Though I Hungered To Be One.

From Very Early On In My Childhood - Four, Five Years Old - I Felt Alien To The Human Race. I Felt Very Comfortable With Thinking I Was From Another Planet, Because I Felt Disconnected - I Was Very Tall And Skinny, And I Didn't Look Like Anybody Else, I Didn't Even Look Like Any Member Of My Family.

I've Always Considered Myself A Writer.

Besides Me Wanting To Be An Artist, I Wanted To Be A Movie Star.
