Character is the result of two things: mental attitude and the way we spend our time.

I think I have a dualistic nature.

Each character represented a trait that resides in me.

The biggest research of all when I do a character is self-examination. You look at yourself and you ask, 'How am I similar to this person and how am I different?'

I'm insatiably curious about human nature. I feel very lucky that as a writer I get to learn so much about it just to do my job right.

I pattern my actions and life after what I want. No two people are alike. You might admire attributes in others, but use these only as a guide in improving yourself in your own unique way. I don't go for carbon copies. Individualism is sacred!

I think the best way to become a character is by osmosis as opposed to thinking directly about stuff.

I work with nature, although in completely new terms.

In my career, which has been fairly two-dimensional, people make decisions based on your persona.

I would say that I have an aspect of my personality which is that I have no personality. That's why I work as an agent. I have the assumed personality of the people I represent. I am like a sponge.
