All I wanted to do was read, to be told stories. Stories were full of excitement and emotions and characters that entertained and often inspired.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I wanted to become a writer. I enjoyed reading as a child.
I was encouraged to be imaginative and read, and it was a great childhood for a budding writer because I had the time and the freedom to go into a world of my own.
One of the reasons I began to write was because I wanted stories for my children where the characters spoke as they did and had similar life experiences.
As a child, I loved story books and wanted to be in them so desperately and live the stories.
I wanted to tell my story in a way I haven't done before, things I've been going through in my life.
I wanted to be a story teller so badly.
I love storytelling so for me to get behind a story and get in there early in its infancy and kind of develop it in the early stages was something I really wanted to be a part of.
I wanted to write a story that demanded the viewer's attention.
I wanted to write stories I wanted to read, that I and my friends related to.
From my very first movie, what was my concentration, my inspiration, was I didn't want to narrate something, I didn't want to tell a story. I wanted to show something, I wanted for them to make their own story from what they were seeing.
