JS: Does food ever inspire you to write? Do you think there is any connection between being a writer and being an eater?

JSF: There are a lot of ways to think about that. First of all, literally what you eat affects how you write. If I drink coffee before I write I'm going to write very differently than if I drink beer, or eat a very heavy meal.

Q: Why don’t your stories have . . .

KL: Endings? Sorry about that. I like to think of the places where my stories stop as more of a jumping-off place. What happens next is probably interesting, but if I’ve written a successful story, you’ll go on thinking about what happened next and maybe you’ll come up with some interesting ideas on your own. Besides, endings are a bit too much like tails on people. Attractive, maybe, but usually not all that convincing.

"It's a signature of youth to want to make a place for oneself by destroying the old guard. Perhaps, as Freud-tinted Harold Bloom has spent a career arguing, it is the anxiety of influence that impels poets to kill off, by "misreading," their artistic fathers in order to establish a place for themselves in the world."
