Middle Age - later than you think and sooner than you expect.
Old age is a special problem for me because I've never been able to shed the mental image I have of myself - a lad of about 19.

I loved anything to do with animals from a very early age.
From an early age, I had the idea that writing was truth-telling. It's on the record. Everybody can see it. Maybe it goes back to the sacred origins of literature - the holy book. There's nothing holy about it for me, but it should be serious, and it...
