I was living at home until about 27 and decided it was time to move out and move somewhere else, so that’s what I did. I wanted it to be the right thing to do. I didn’t want to buy something out of my price range; I didn’t want to be stupid with my money, so I decided to stay at home. Luckily, my mum and dad were amazing.

This is what I believe about performing: There is no reason to be on stage – there is no reason to be there – if you’re not going to put all your baggage somewhere else and just be honest. Whatever you’re doing – screw it up, do great – just be there, and be honest. That’s the most important thing.
11
Yes, I’m a complete itinerant. I keep making attempts not to be, but then circumstances make me uproot and go somewhere else again. It’s not the worst thing in the world at all; I love it. In fact, I’m probably horribly addicted to it.

We, as Americans, at least – I mean, I love my country – but we’re so self-righteous sometimes, in terms of, like, our nationality, our country. But we’re people from somewhere else; the true ‘Americans’ are the original peoples. It’s funny, but we’re a very territorial species.

It was a tricky one as I had other clubs interested in me, not as big as United. I wasn’t guaranteed game time anywhere, so why not take this opportunity at the biggest club in the world? If it doesn’t work out, I can always go somewhere else. That was my mindset at the time.

I have a very strong imagination and have since I was a little kid. That is where a lot of my world comes from. It’s like I’m off somewhere else. And I can have a problem in life because of that, because I’m always off in some other world thinking about something else. It’s constant.

This is what I have discovered – and it has been a gift in itself – that books live over and over again in different people‘s minds. That I might mean one thing as I write, but a reader‘s experiences will take it somewhere else. That is like a conversation, I think. It is a true connecting up.
87
In virtual reality, we’re placing the viewer inside a moment or a story… made possible by sound and visual technology that’s actually tricking the brain into believing it’s somewhere else.

Writing is writing to me. I’m incapable of saying no to any writing job, so I’ve done everything – historical fiction, myths, fairy tales, anything that anybody expresses any interest in me writing, I’ll write. It’s the same reason I used to read as a child: I like going somewhere else and being someone else.
103
There’s an element to songwriting that I can’t explain, that comes from somewhere else. I can’t explain that dividing line between nothing and something that happens within a song, where you have absolutely nothing, and then suddenly you have something. It’s like the origin of the universe.

But I also write on the road.

Underground people pay a desperate toll finding out things nobody else has discovered yet. We run around like headless chickens looking for the next cultural fix to spiral around in before it gets appropriated somewhere else and becomes something it never was.

124

125
126
