I'm not really a heavy smoker any more. I only get through two lighters a day now.
While the river of life glides along smoothly, it remains the same river; only the landscape on either bank seems to change.

A lot of times, female characters - particularly the villains - come off as very one-dimensional. They get the short shrift in that they're only given the snappy comeback, or they're relegated to a very stereotypical role. I want to know what's driving them - that's what's really interesting.

Only individual creativity can bring about real social development.
