I think people got in touch with me either knowing my work, or probably more frequently just knowing a plot or sort of buzz about something i did and sort of saying, "get that guy that writes the crazy stuff in here."

More From Mark Leyner

Plot comes first. the plot is the archictecture of your novel. you wouldn't build a house without a plan. if i wrote without a plot, it would just be a pile of bricks. characters are your servants. they must serve your plot.
Character House Firsts
Any plot you impose on your characters will be onomatopoetic: plot. i say don't worry about plot. worry about the characters. let what they say or do reveal who they are, and be involved in their lives, and keep asking yourself, now what happens? the development of relationship creates plot.
Character Worry Plot
And if i'm guilty of having gratuitous sex, then i'm also guilty of having gratuitous violence, and gratuitous feasting, and gratuitous description of clothes, and gratuitous heraldry, because very little of this is necessary to advance the plot. but my philosophy is that plot advancement is not what the experience of reading fiction is about. if all we care about is advancing the plot, why read novels? we can just read cliffs notes.
Sex Philosophy Reading
We are all one, i mean communication, just the realisation of human love reciprocated, it's such a gas, it's a good vibration which makes you feel good. these vibrations that you get through yoga, cosmic chants and things like that. i mean it's such a buzz, it buzzes you out of everywhere. it's nothing to do with pills or anything like that. it's just in your own head, the realisation, it's such a buzz, it buzzes you right into the astral plane.
Yoga Communication Mean
There's a lot of hyperventilation that takes off before the [sundance film] festival, a lot of buzz. every year we hear, this is going to be the new this, this is going to be the new that, and it never is. the buzz just doesn't mean anything. i'm glad it doesn't. because i think the festival shows that what succeeds is content.
Mean Thinking Years
I always start with characters rather than with a plot, which many critics would say is very obvious from the lack of plot in my films - although i think they do have plots - but the plot is not of primary importance to me, the characters are.

Similar Quotes
I was always a character actress and never a sex symbol. even when i was the leading lady, i was a character actor.
Sex Character Actors
Some men are born to own, and can animate all their possessions. others cannot: their owning is not graceful; seems to be a compromise of their character: they seem to steal their own dividends.
Character Men Compromise
It's not a pretty face, i grant you. but underneath its flabby exterior is an enormous lack of character.
Character Faces Enormous
There is less pressure as a character actor. it generally means that you will be acting for all of your life, which is my intention. it is not my intention to just be a rich and famous person, that would be pretty boring.
