Some Of The Ideas Are Kind Of

It's About Seeing How Much Texture We Can Give It And Seeing How Many Things Are There For People To Latch On To... I Just Want To Do It The Way I Want And I Feel Like It Won't Be Helpful For Me If I Start Worrying About That. I Just Have To Follow My Instincts. Everyone Is Going To Respond Differently To It And Everybody's Right - That's Their Point Of View. That's How The Story Intersects With Their Lives.
