Everybody knows that I'm not a snob when it comes to pop culture, obviously. I love reality shows.

I had gone to the bookstore, and while I hadn't bought any books on how to write a screenplay, I'd bought a couple of scripts so I could see how the formatting works. I just needed to know how a Hollywood screenplay looked on the page, which was something I was totally unfamiliar with.

I can't write at night. For me, I'm programmed to believe that nighttime is for relaxation.

My boyfriend is Italian and from New Jersey, so naturally he was thrilled to meet Joe Pesci.

I have a lot of screenwriter friends and many of them have had an experience where they aren't even welcome on set during production.

I think it's great when writers get recognition; it doesn't happen very often. I just don't want that writer to be me. Let it be Aaron Sorkin or, you know, somebody good.

Put your blog out into the world and hope that your talent will speak for itself.
