This Is For The Writers. I Want To Thank All The Writers. I Especially Want To Thank My Fellow Nominees Because I Worship You Guys And I'm Learning From You Every Day.

Unfortunately, I Can't Fault Other Writers And Directors For How They Choose To Present Themselves, But I Just Think People Are Very Fearful Of Declaring Themselves As Feminists Because It's Just Confused With Being Misandry. And If You Get Labeled A Man-hater In This Town, You're Screwed. Men Are Still The Gatekeepers.

I Have A Lot Of Screenwriter Friends And Many Of Them Have Had An Experience Where They Aren't Even Welcome On Set During Production.

I Do Not Quote My Own Movies. I Think I Would Be Pretty Insufferable If I Did.
