• GOOD AS NEW nació de la idea de escribir una obra en la que hubiera mucho en juego y los choques fueran de naturaleza verbal. También quería escribir una obra en la que la gente fuera más lista que yo y estuviera más viva de lo que me siento normalmente. Me interesaba la idea de personajes que me sorprendieran. Supongo que se podría argumentar que nada sale de ti que no estuviera dentro de ti desde el principio, pero quizá haya formas de engañarte a ti mismo para que te conviertas más en un observador o un defensor de los personajes.
