It’s impossible to write and produce a record when your parents are dying. I really tried, I really, really tried, but it just wouldn’t come Picture Quote #1

What I often do is just think of a completely obtuse thing to do, almost the wrong thing to do. That often works because you start a different approach, something no one has tried Picture Quote #1

One of the things I’ve tried to do in my career is really write different kinds of books, so I’m able to broaden people’s expectations of what I’m allowed to do Picture Quote #1

I’ve done choir since I was tiny, and I’ve always tried to get into plays. They all just meshed together. Now with my career, especially with music, people are like, Which one do you pick? I don’t pick either. They’re just different expressions of who I am Picture Quote #1
