Take it from your own life, write what you believe in.

There's several ways to be a journalist. One way is to be combative and take the person to task and what you have is a portrait of somebody defending themselves, which is interesting. The other thing is to slip into their world and really be a representative for all the people that love the experience of that artist, and have them get so comfortable that you become invisible and they're themselves.

I'm impossible to forget, but I'm hard to remember.

I write with music. I write scenes in movies that hopefully can earn the use of some songs that are powerful to me.

People dance and we have a lot of music and... this might be the closet I get for a while.

What you believe one day isn't what you believe the next day and I think every writer secretly believes that they may never be able to do write good song or script again, but they can.

The future isn't just something that happens. It's a brutal force, with a great sense of humor, that'll steamroll you if you're not watching.
