You try not to because it's hard and at times shameful, but then when you read those pages over and you see they have no life to them so you throw them away and force yourself to be more honest. So I suppose the answer is I see myself in all my characters, in their best moments and in their worst.

• I think about the poet Rainer Maria Rilke who said that it's the questions that move us, not the answers.
