I do yoga weekly. I don't know who I'd be without yoga and running.

I'm a quasi-only child. With my brother and sister, I've more of a tendency to be semi-maternal. So, yes, I spent a lot of time talking to myself - I had this big dressing-up box and would just dress up as lots of characters and talk back to myself... Verging on schizophrenia, I suppose, if you analyse it carefully.

If you're a loner and you like to go off and run on your own, do that.

I started writing In Darkness out of a frustration of the quality of roles that I was reading in scripts for women.

I don't believe in nudity for nudity's sake, nothing gratuitous.

I just want to play real human beings. You know, I don't care if they're male or female.

I’ve always been a black sheep. That’s a hard thing to be until you find your calling in life. I was bullied a lot at school, probably because I was perceived to be different from everyone else.
