Writing a screenplay is like writing a big puzzle, and so the hardest part, I think, is getting the story.

Generally, screenplays suck.

You work with great directors and terrible directors, and so you learn; you take what you think will work for you.

I think it's more interesting to throw people into a story and let them catch up instead of explaining and feeling like you have to slow down for them. I think audiences, for the most part, they don't want to be ahead of you.

When I write, I make decent money doing it, but I don't wake up dreaming about writing.
