| James Lee Burke
I wouldn't write anything autobiographical. If you've lived a life like Laurence of Arabia, it might be a consideration, but otherwise it's a little bit vain, it seems to me. If you put somebody on a crack pipe and give them a 9 mm Baretta, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out what's going to happen next. Using a first-person narrator is simply a matter of hearing the voice inside yourself. We decry violence all the time in this country, but look at our history. We were born in a violent revolution, and we've been in wars ever since. We're not a pacific people. You do it a day at a time. You write as well as you can, you put it in the mail, you leave it under submission, you never leave it at home. |
