Oh, yeah.

Because it was so sad what happened to Jodie Verrill.

Let me just rephrase.

I just want to remind you guys that I'm sitting here.

The question you just asked was, Steve, did you get together with your wife to breed?

Wherever that question is going, it's already gone someplace I don't want to think about.

So she's like what five Joe, five books, seven, I think six, everyone in the family takes the manuscript to her first, you know, and I'll tell you a story about my mom.

I, um,

My third novel, Nosferatu, had a really bleak ending, dark and dark, ugly ending, you know, where, you know, hopeless.

And I'm like and I'm not changing a word because I'm a fucking artist, man.

I'm going to just rub their face in the hopelessness and futility of life.

You know, when I was dead set, like I'm staying with it.

And the first person I sent the book to was my mom.

And she blasted through and she called me up, you know, a week later and she said, Joe, I finished the book and it's just so wonderful.

But that ending really won't do.

And I said, OK, mom, I'll change it.

So that's how long my artistic integrity held on.

And, you know, the other thing about Mom, and I think it's given us everyone in the family sort of tough skin when it comes to reviews and stuff, is she writes all the bad reviews first.

When Dad finished it, she said, the critics are going to say you left off two letters.

And when he finished Insomnia, she said, oh, I can see the reviews already.
