N. Alexsander Sidirov I don't set a deadline for everything. Sometimes when something isn't done I just let it be not done. And move on. Knowing that further down the line it will come back to me.
N. Alexsander Sidirov The way it gives my life purpose.
N. Alexsander Sidirov Write, but don't only go to writing for inspiration. Find the things in the world that speak to you and interrogate yourself to find out why you are attracted to them and transmute those experiences and understandings into your work. Aim to evoke emotion from your readers the way art or cinema, or other writing moves you.

N. Alexsander Sidirov I like to listen to music and watch movies. One of my favorite challenges is to watch a crazy film director or musician and ask myself how can I push the genre of writing in a way analogous to these people. Whether I acheived it or not is always going to be up for debate but a lot of times the challenge is inspiring and exciting
N. Alexsander Sidirov I've been working on this book slowly for over four years. The concept came later. My next book(s), I already have the story for and concept for. So its not always the story comes before the concept. Sometimes the dog wags the tail and sometimes the tail wags the dog.
N. Alexsander Sidirov Um ask me closer to summer. I usually set all my goals on my birthday.
N. Alexsander Sidirov Hmmm that's a good question. Possibly Haruki Murakami's world because the way he describes things is so tender and gentle. Either that or maybe H.P. Lovecraft where the aliens are these old gods completely apathetic to our existence.
