I was always concerned with writing to my age at a particular moment. That was the way I would keep faith with the audience that supported me as I went along.
I tend to be a subscriber to the idea that you have everything you need by the time you`re 12 years old to do interesting writing for most of the rest of your life - certainly by the time you`re 18.
If they had told me I was the janitor and would have to mop up and clean the toilets after the show in order to play, I probably would have done it.
