Some Excerpts

Read everything you can get your hands on, and get all the writing practice you can. If you can get some experience as a journalist, so much the better. Working on deadline teaches you to write anytime, under any conditions, whether you want to or not. I've written stories while a managing editor was singing Love Is a Battlefield 20 feet away, so you see that it can be done.

End [of the show]? What end? I'm with Yogi Berra: It's not over till it's over.

[Subtext]: It's been great entertainment. But that's not why I watched, or at least not the main reason. The first episode I saw was A Day in the Life , and I was hooked without even picking up on the subtext. I still remember thinking, "These people are crazy. They ought to be locked up. I've GOT to start watching this thing."
