I actually very rarely see comedy myself, and although I admire the work of some comics, it does come from all over, so I'll get a charge out of some fiction writers and poets.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Every time I think about writing, comedy doesn't interest me in the slightest. I can play comedy, but I don't think in terms of comic dialogue.
A good comedy's very hard to make, so good comic writing I really enjoy.
I love the satire and skewering of comedy writing.
I actually gravitate toward comedy a lot when it comes to what I'm watching, but maybe that's because I've been on such dark work the last four or five years.
I think that comedy is one of the more serious things that you can do in our day, especially in the world that we're living in.
Comedy tends to come out of things which are quite painful and serious.
Comedy will always be central to what I do, it's just an instinct for me, but I am a writer and always have been.
Any comic is a tragic soul. Comedy is one of the things that allows one to survive. Particularly if one has been in the process of separating off the emotions, it's one place you can process them.
I'll probably stick to comedy for the time being. I mean, a great piece of work is a great piece of work, and I'm up for good work anytime. But I do love comedy!
I think it would be harder for me not to write comedy because the comic view of things is the one that comes most naturally to me.
