I hate trying to analyze comedy in some deep way. If it gets laughs, it's funny.

But I majored in Drama, modified with Psychology.

In theater, it's just you and the audience. It's less of a popularity contest. It's just you and the audience, and they're laughing or they're not laughing, that's the only gauge you really have. But with TV and movies and everything, it's like "Well, did you get a meeting at so-and-so?" and "So-and-so's really hot right now," which is all the stuff I'm probably still not used to.

I didn't originally intend on writing a book. I started writing during the day to feel like I was accomplishing something creative.

I was sort of the class-clown type, and I was also in school plays, and I always liked comedy.

Since I was little, it was instilled in me to conserve water. In terms of what can you do as an individual, it's an easy issue to get behind.

Actually, I didn't like Dartmouth very much, but the whole theater scene I really liked.
