I've always been a writer, I've always been a storyteller, but I never thought about screenwriting.

It's possible that I've matured as a writer, and I hope I've matured emotionally, but I always find myself revisiting these adolescent scenes.

I have never been an ambitious person, and my participation in this industry is a fluke, but only male writers can afford to be coy and self-deprecating.

I've been meaning to write about the Rolling Stones, but I am the furthest thing from a hipster rock journalist.

There's something magical about spending a Sunday night watching real people at a deli, then watching fake people pretending to be real on TV, then engaging in (arguably) false interaction with (arguably) real people on the Internet. Never at any prior point in time has this been possible.

I'm not an especially highbrow person, but I have always loved small, quirky, edgy movies.
