[Bill Sikes]

he seemed much at ease and open, talking to (i assume) attractive interviewer:

Thanks, Bill Sikes! - I believe you can also find the interview in the Bukowski interview book, "Sunlight Here I Am" (edited by forum member, David Calonne).

and yeah, Sunlight.

I like the part where he claim he's 'selfish.' You have to be, what I am learning as I go that if you aren't somewhat selfish - the family, wife, kids - they'll eat you up alive.Also, you will keep the 'toxic' friendships at bay.
So many valuable lessons in his work that we usually just forget or shrug-off.
