My Resting Pulse As A Writer Is

Film Doesn't Have To Worry. Movies Are Awesome. There's No War Going On, Theaters Aren't Going To Lose.

I Do Enjoy The Fact That We Don't Have A King Or Queen; We Have A Person With A Very Unusual Temp Job For A Few Years. My Favorite Moments On The Show Were Always Showing The Intersection Of The Person And The Job. Any Time Bartlet From The West Wing Could Be Something Other Than The President - A Father, Or A Husband, Or A Son, Or A Friend.

Decisions Are Made By Those Who Show Up.

I Don't Want To Analyze Myself Or Anything, But I Think, In Fact I Know This To Be True, That I Enter The World Through What I Write. I Grew Up Believing, And Continue To Believe, That I Am A Screw-up, That Growing Up With My Family And Friends, I Had Nothing To Offer In Any Conversation. But When I Started Writing, Suddenly There Was Something That I Brought To The Party That Was At A High-enough Level.

If I Get An Idea For A Series That I Really Like, I'm Sure I Won't Be Able To Resist Coming Back And Doing It.
