Count No Count


I'm sitting in my new apartment drinking white wine and writing about teenage devil worship. 30 years ago I was in Paris typing out a Brian ferry interview for a German gangster.

Jorgen.

Playboy of the West.

"Do you want anything?" He asked placing the tape recorder on the table next to my typewriter.

"Just a glass of champagne and a line of coke."

He came back with both and he said later, "That is my idea of a writer."

I was glad to not disappoint him then or now.
