If you stumble on something really good, like I did with 'Mercy Now,' then it becomes therapeutic for more than just the writer.

en Everyone thinks they can be a writer. Most people don't understand what's involved. The real writers persevere.

en [Stepping out from the shadow of Psycho , and such other iconic works as Less Than Zero and The Rules of Attraction , has been difficult for Ellis.] I had spent 10 years working on an outline about a writer very much like myself, ...
