I'm not jumping into anything fast. I'm an actor that likes to choose my work and there's an element of good taste to my work.

Waiting to be hired, as an actor, especially, is soul-destroying... There is always something you can do... Create something, a play reading... Anything. But don't rely on other people to come to you. Put yourself out there.

As an actor, you never know where the work's going to come, so you have to be flexible about it.

There's more pressure as a writer. As an actor you usually just go, do your job, and go home.

Being an actor started me writing, and that led to directing.

I love my work, but I don't like being in the spotlight. I was never going to be an actor, that's for sure.

I started writing because I wasn't getting things as an actor.

As far as working with actors, I feel very comfortable working in that aspect of directing.

I really think that as good of a job as you do as a writer, you're absolutely indebted to the actors that have to deliver that material.

I don't really like to work with actors that work a lot and are very well established already. In a way, I like to nurture talent and have it burst on the scene.
