Every global economy runs on the same basic engine:
1. People want things.
2. People lie about what they want.
3. Someone writes a book about the wreckage.
I’m definitely step 3.

My marketing strategy is to just share the joy. I watched this interview with Chris Moore 25 times at least while editing it. Still holds up.

I have obviously sworn so many times when I’m dictating notes, that when I say the word “flux”—which I say a lot in the novel I’m currently writing—my Mac automatically translates it to “fuck.”

I once nearly drove Val Kilmer over a cliff, driving him to ADR for the Doors because his house in HW Hills—the dirt drive was barely wide enough for a car. We survived. Whenever he was in LA, he’d call me to get together to talk ideas. He was weird. Intense. And very funny. RIP, Val.

It never occurs to narcissists that their vanity might expose them to ridicule. Meet the F-47. Which to my eye, is the slightly more polite version of: the Fuck Trump

When Gene Hackman was developing his hilarious character for Get Shorty, he was channeling his (and my) business manager, Edgar Gross. Look. Teeth. Some mannerisms. Edgar’s pic is from ~12 years after Get Shorty. Hackman was a deadringer for Edgar in 1995.

Before my first sale to a major studio, I did odd jobs for people who'd later be my business managers. Gene Hackman was a client. He was charming AND a loner. I got locked in his car pulling it out of storage—battery. “Thanks for not kicking out the windshield—I’d have to give half to my ex-wife.”

I think we should require ALL criminals to self-report (or face prosecution). I can’t imagine why we haven’t thought of this before.

The author's mom was in my high school class, and is one of the most deeply kind and principled people I've known. This story of a journey in faith is so rewarding to read, and exemplifies what (I think) Jesus would want us to do. The last paragraph made me cry.

How did my dad go from hating homosexuality to imploding his church by embracing me? His journal entries show how he changed his mind.
