I did write a couple of original screenplays, but I'd rather write plays.
My fault now is making my plays too short.
Plays are so much more special if they've never ever had a production, but I think you can really work on a play and make it better with each production.
I tried to start a theatre in LA and failed miserably, but I was probably not meant to raise money.
It was kind of enlightening to become a playwright.
I grew up in Jackson, Mississippi, really in suburbia, so my mother was in community theatre plays.
