More From Sydney Pollack

I really wish that peoplewould just say, 'yes, it's a comic. yes, this is fantasy. yes, this is science fiction,' and defend the genre instead of saying, 'horror is a bit passe so this is dark fantasy,' and that' s playing someone else's game. so that's why i say i'm a fantasy writer and to hell with 'it doesn't read like what i think of as a fantasy'. in that case what you think of as a fantasy is not a fantasy. or there is more to it than you think.
Dark Thinking Games
Just because you’ve only been alive for fifteen years doesn’t mean you’re less anything except old. that’s all it means. it doesn’t mean you’re less experienced. it doesn’t mean you’re less intelligent. it doesn’t mean you’re less sensitive. it doesn’t mean you take things less seriously. it’s like, these are younger human beings, meaning don’t, because they’re only ten, start thinking that they don’t know what you’re talking about -because they do. don’t leave people out in the cold, and don’t talk down to people -don’t. it never works out.
Mean Thinking Intelligent
If you are going to write, say, fantasy - stop reading fantasy. you've already read too much. read other things; read westerns, read history, read anything that seems interesting, because if you only read fantasy and then you start to write fantasy, all you're going to do is recycle the same old stuff and move it around a bit.
Moving Reading Writing
I just wish i had longer. it's very frustrating. as you know, to people over here, cities like [washington] d.c. are iconic. we know them so well. it's very frustrating to be in one of them for 36 hours and have a show to do because you can't really do anything.

There has been a lot of bad fantasy in the past - i'm by no means saying that all classic fantasy out there is bad - but there has been a lot of bad fantasy written by people who read a lot of fantasy and so all they keep doing is recycling it.
Mean Past People
You must be really bad, because it is a puzzle. creating anything is hard. it’s a cliché thing to say, but every time you start a job, you just don’t know anything. i mean, i can break something down, but ultimately i don’t know anything when i start work on a new movie. you start stabbing out, and you make a mistake, and it’s not right, and then you try again and again. the key is you have to commit. and that’s hard because you have to find what it is you are committing to.
