I think, for me, when I direct my own work it's just an extension of the authorship.
A typical day for me is I'm writing when I'm not directing.
When I'm directing, I'm pretty much not writing, but when I'm not directing I am writing a lot.
I've never really felt that I've had the right hair cut, or had the right clothes.
I don't put big concepts on my work, and it's all often about keeping actors in a room together and not letting them leave.
I find that more and more I'm trying to entertain myself when I'm working, because I know the work's going to go to a horrible place.
