"I haven’t always been a writer. My parents are writers and my brother is a writer, and I resisted that as long as I could. When I was 17, I hopped in a band’s van and I went on tour for a summer, and that was it, that was what I wanted to do. I ran a record label for 10 years, a small indie punk label.

I was resigned to thinking, if I’m going to be involved in music forever, I’m going to hate it for the rest of my lif -
