The journalism school helped me develop writing skills, and I had been enjoying cartooning from a very young age. My interest in puppetry, however, came much later.

But with The Dark Crystal, instead of puppetry we're trying to go toward a sense of realism - toward a reality of creatures that are actually alive and we're mixing up puppetry and all kinds of other techniques.

I always knew where I was going eventually, so it helped me to stay at home for three years. It helped me to develop my game. But it also helped me off the ice. Life here is way different, and I was able to get older.

The only school that let me in was U.C. Santa Cruz, which is where I went. They didn't have a journalism program, so I took sociology, which is the closest thing to journalism.

I'm not qualified to do anything else. So there better be another job. I'm kind of stuck now. I'm enjoying my life and I'm enjoying my work, and I'm enjoying the fact that the work I'm doing is garnering some interest and that's great. I just hope that it continues.

One of the sad things about contemporary journalism is that it actually matters very little. The world now is almost inured to the power of journalism. The best journalism would manage to outrage people. And people are less and less inclined to outrage.

Drivin Thunder
By stephen stills & neil young
People put me down, say that Im a fool
But I got news for them
I aint never going back to driving school.
And I aint too good with numbers
And Ive just run out of fuel
Here comes another corner baby
Let me demonstrate my slide rule.
Drivin thunder, rollin down the highway
Just one way to go, just one way to go.
Just one way to go, hey hey, and thats my way.
I stopped into the courthouse
I had to pay some bills
Got talking with the judge
About the finer points of my driving skills.
He said son, you only drive that way
Tryin to get your thrills
But bear in mind your drivers license
Aint never been no license to kill.
Drivin thunder, rollin down the highway
Just one way to go, just one way to go.
Just one way to go, hey hey, and thats my way.
Driving school,
Slide rule,
Driving skills,
License to kill.
Drivin thunder, rollin down the highway
Just one way to go, just one way to go.
Just one way to go, hey hey, and thats my way.

Early British pop was helped tremendously by the writing of Bob Dylan who had proved you could write about political and quite controversial subjects. Certainly what we did followed on from what was happening with the angry young men in the theatre.

I think young writers should get other degrees first, social sciences, arts degrees or even business degrees. What you learn is research skills, a necessity because a lot of writing is about trying to find information.

I keep telling myself to calm down, to take less of an interest in things and not to get so excited, but I still care a lot about liberty, freedom of speech and expression, and fairness in journalism.

I've always enjoyed writing, I graduated with a degree in English; I've done bits of journalism.
