"People think that I work hard because I write a lot of books, but all I do is whatever I want. I sit in a coffee shop, I write whatever’s in my head, I don’t teach. The projects I’m involved in, things like The Rumpus, they’re things I want to do.
Even if I’m poor, it’s like being rich. That’s what it is to be rich."
