I show up in my writing room at approximately 10 A.M. every morning without fail. Sometimes my muse sees fit to join me there and sometimes she doesn’t, but she always knows where I’ll be. She doesn’t need to go hunting in the taverns or on the beach or drag the boulevard looking for me.
I’ve been to strip clubs where the dancers have these whole routines that they create just for the wow factor and to say, ‘Look how strong and physically fit I am.’ Most women couldn’t do it, and it’s not necessarily sexual. It’s just a performance.

You know, ‘Peepshow,’ in retrospect that seems like a good fit for me, but in the beginning, I’m sure you remember, nobody was sure if the show was going to last. Everybody was like, ‘What are you doing? You can’t sing, and you can’t dance. What are you doing in this show?’
