I can talk endlessly about characters, or why someone did this or that, and what that dynamic and interaction is. I really love it, and I think that actors really respond positively to the fact that I like to talk about that stuff, because I'm not sure that all directors do. ↗

I do have some theatrical background. I've written plays and seen plays and read plays. But I also read novels. One thing I don't read is screenplays. ↗

The way I write is very much without kind of a goal. I have something I'm interested in and then I decide I'm going to explore it. I don't know where the characters are going to go, I don't know what the movie is going to do or what the screenplay is going to do. For me, that's the way to keep it alive. ↗

I do throw out a lot of ideas, and I forget completely about them. ↗

I don't think screenwriting is therapeutic. It's actually really, really hard for me. It's not an enjoyable process. ↗

I feel like I want to keep moving toward idiosyncracy. Personal, personal, personal. ↗

I graduated from college in 1980. ↗

I have a personality that tends to be somewhat compulsive, and I do tend to think in a circular way. I dwell on the same things over and over and I try to figure out different ways of looking at the same issue. ↗

I have ideas written down some places, but usually I can't find them. I'm not very organized. ↗
