At one point I thought changing my name might help with privacy, but that was before the Internet.

I love the writing process. It's something that I'm interested in personally and something I always do on every movie.

Many casting directors won't hire aspiring actors because you might be burning some chick's headshot under the table so she doesn't get the part.

Writers get to know me very well. It always serves me in the end because I feel I have a deeper understanding of the character and sometimes they really like my ideas and they use them.

I am a big music nerd.
