I've been keeping a diary for thirty-three years and write in it every morning. Most of it's just whining, but every so often there'll be something I can use later: a joke, a description, a quote. It's an invaluable aid when it comes to winning arguments. 'That's not what you said on February 3, 1996,' I'll say to someone. ↗

I'd like to do the young cadet thing again for sure, but that's why I wanted to do this, to see if I could do it. I took the scenes out of the script and put them together and read them as one little arc, story and that seemed to work. ↗

It all starts with the script: it's not worth taking myself away from my family if I don't have something I'm really passionate about. ↗

I get work because I'm primarily a novelist but I've become script doctor. I can work back and forth between French and English. ↗
