Author interviews

Le Guin interview :

Q: Perhaps you feel a bit out of step with your contemporaries?

UKL: Why should a woman of 74 want to be “in step with” anybody? Am I in an army, or something?

Nominally Norman Spinrad interviewing Woody Allen, this reads much more like Woody Allen interviewing Norman Spinrad :

N.S.: When you’re in the States and you’re a writer and you’ve
got money and you walk into a bank and you’ve got money, you’re a
bum with money. If you’re broke, you’re just a bum.

(Via Neil Gaiman’s Journal , Word Blog )

You will have me reading her novels now! Certainly, in an age where we are expected to conform, it is refreshing to read that interview.
