I quite enjoy a high-waisted cotton panty.

I always wrote. My parents are writers. It just seemed like something people did.

If I was born into a household with anxiety about money, I wouldn't have had as much freedom to be in my own world. So it's impossible for me to divorce the privilege of my childhood from the other things.

I think action should be revealed through character, so if you have a plot problem, it's probably a character problem.

I'm not that interested in writing for myself. That's not where my impetus as a writer comes from.

I hate going to bed. I read scripts, clean, listen to the radio - I've fallen asleep to 'This American Life' more times than I can count!

I'm always disappointed after an audition when I don't get a part and I hear, "Oh, she was too X, or too Y," and it's too much of a quality.
