It's Extremely Seldom That Anybody Wants Me

I Decided I Was Going To Tell These Stories. I Went Around And Met Crumb. He Was The Cartoonist. I Started Realizing Comics Weren't Just Kid Stuff.

As A Matter Of Fact, I Deliberately Look For The Mundane, Because I Feel These Stories Are Ignored. The Most Influential Things That Happen To Virtually All Of Us Are The Things That Happen On A Daily Basis. Not The Traumas.

I Always Wanted Praise And I Always Wanted Attention; I Won't Lie To You. I Was A Jazz Critic And That Wasn't Good Enough For Me. I Wanted People To Write About Me, Not Me About Them. So I Thought, What Could I Do? I Can't Sing, I Can't Dance, I Can't Act Or Anything Like That. Ok, I Can Write.

I've Probably Had My Day In The Sun. I Think I've Influenced A Lot Of Comic Book Writers

I Write Scripts In Storyboard Fashion Using Stick Figures, And Thought Balloons And Word Balloons And Captions. Then I'll Write Descriptions Of What Scenes Should Look Like And Turn It Over To The Artist
