I always think the audience sometimes wants what you're not giving them.

Time away from thinking about something is as valuable - perhaps even more so - than directly thinking about it.

The world's an angry place these days. Let's just not take it out on each other.

At the end of the day, I think the only way to do the kind of job a writer does is push everything aside and just ultimately sit down and do the work.

I think when you do a season of television you go into it going I'd like the season premiere needs to be amazing. The season finale needs to be amazing.

I'm always working on something. I wish I had more time for free-thinking and brainstorming new ideas. That's not to say my mind doesn't wander, but I find myself wishing for more of that kind of time.

I'm very fortunate in that all the mediums I work in are extremely collaborative. Movies are probably the most solitary on a day to day basis, but even then you have producers and studio executives to work with and bounce ideas off of.
