I think, in a weird way, the reason I was drawn to screenwriting and the reason I really love doing it is because I love writing dialogue.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love writing dialogue, and I think a lot of my writing is visual and very cinematic.
I had always been interested in screenwriting, ever since I could write things down as a child. Obviously, I started as an actor, professionally, but screenwriting was always something that I had a great interest in.
I love writing for the screen.
There's a satisfaction I get from writing fiction that I will never get from screenwriting.
Screenwriting is like ironing. You move forward a little bit and go back and smooth things out.
I became a script writer with absolutely no idea of how to write a script whatsoever. I still feel a bit of an outsider in that regard. If I can maintain that approach to screenwriting, it can continue to be enjoyable.
Screenwriting is the most prized of all the cinematic arts. Actually, it isn't, but it should be.
I love writing. I think writing and directing go hand in hand.
I don't think screenwriting is therapeutic. It's actually really, really hard for me. It's not an enjoyable process.
I've always been a writer, I've always been a storyteller, but I never thought about screenwriting.
