People might think writing is a hard business, but it's nowhere near acting.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There are so many reasons why, for me, writing is superior to acting. One of them is anonymity. Writers can live relatively normal lives.
Writing is much more satisfying on a certain level than acting ever was. Because you're not interpreting someone else's original idea, you can come up with your own.
Acting is just common sense. It isn't hard if you put yourself aside and just do what the writer wrote.
I think the writing skills of actors are sometimes underestimated.
It's hard writing screenplays.
Writing is a very strenuous thing - it's like banging your head against a wall. At the end of the day, acting is better, just because nobody ever asked me if I wanted a Pellegrino in the writer's room.
Acting is contained - you act for three months, then leave it - but writing is the act of creation. Writing is dangerous.
Acting is easier - writing is more creative. The lazy man vies with the industrious.
It's bad writing, however naturalistic it's written, that's where you have to do your best acting.
I don't call acting a real job, and writing is a hobby.
