Thanks @yahialababidi. It's amazing and very astute of you to pick up on some of my influences. It's true that as I get older I don't look up to or altogether trust these characters as much as I used to.
I know, because they were influences of mine, too, and shaped my mental/emotional landscape as a writer and person. I think part of growing up, or maturing, is seeing the clay feet of our idols...

Good meeting you. Very well put and very true.
