I just really loved films and thought I should be writing screenplays.

I've written a couple screenplays and half-finished plays.

I started writing screenplays myself and eventually directing.

Writing a screenplay is like writing a big puzzle, and so the hardest part, I think, is getting the story.

It's hard writing screenplays.

I've been a screenwriter for twenty-five years. Every one of my books have been optioned for movies and I have written a few of those screenplays.

When I graduated college I needed to make money while I was pursuing acting, so I read screenplays and made a living writing coverage on them for studios.

As a journalist, as a screenwriter and as a director, I'm trying to tell compelling and truthful stories.

Really, when I write a book I'm the only one I have to please. That's the beauty of writing a book instead of a screenplay.
