When I Started Writing My Stories, I

I Tried Once In My Life To Write A Novel. I Had Written Something Like 80 Pages Of It When My Laptop Got Stolen. When I Told People This, They Acted As If Something Tragic Had Happened, But I Kind Of Felt Relieved, Grateful To The Thief Who Saved Me From Another Year Of Something That Felt More Like Homework Than Fun.

To What Extent Does Anybody Control His Destiny? Life Is Very Much Like Falling Of The Edge Of A Cliff. You Have Complete Freedom To Make All The Choices You Want To Take On Your Way Down. My Characters Choose To Yearn And Not Lose Hope Even When The Odds Are Completely Against Them. It Doesn't Make The Landing At The End Of That Fall Any Less Painful But, Somehow, It Helps Them Keep A Little Dignity Their Bone Broken Body.

When My Works Are Being Translated, I Always Get This Question From My Translators: Up Or Down? Which Means, Should It Sound Biblical And Highbrow, Or Should We Take It All Down To Sound Colloquial? In Hebrew, It's Both All The Time. People In Israel Would Write In A High Register, They Wouldn't Write Colloquial Speech. I Do A Special Take On Colloquial Speech.
