So apt a title, what a tough interviewer you are, cruel at times even; and yet such a cooperative and willing interviewee. how kind you are as well. haha, one more paradox within JCO revealed. also ... loved your being revealing (yet still coy) about writing in a semi-trance. i find an interesting parallel in film editing. to my surprise often late at night, or when slightly under the weather thru fatigue or health, i nonetheless find myself doing some of my best work... a semi-trance state = less ego & more creative? Perhaps with the ego out of the way, easier for the work itself to rise to the top and the work itself tells me what to do.
