I tend to write my beginnings and endings first - as a cartoonist and storyteller, I couldn't sit down every day if I didn't know where the story was headed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I begin to write a story, I usually know how things will end. It's the journey toward that point I must discover. The process is sometimes painful, but also exciting.
I started as a writer; I started writing when I was little. The acting and directing was an outgrowth of my desire to tell stories.
From the beginning, when I first got an idea for a story and wondered if I could write it, it has always been the story that has driven me.
I started writing stories in my spare time.
I considered that I had to write stories about the people I had met, with whom I'd worked, the history of my books - just in case I up and die.
I began to write, believing that all I had to do to change things would be to write the other side, to tell the stories that I heard from my grandmother.
Like so many writers I started writing stories because I didn't have much time for anything else.
If you're gonna start a story, you start from the beginning, right?
I started out writing stories because that's all I wanted to read, but now I don't know if I'll ever write one again.
I write and draw from the gut. I often don't know what my stories are about until they're done.
