I spoke with more actors, musicians, policymakers, and so many other fascinating people,

I love writing more than anything.

You're left alone.

You know, you do three hours in the morning. You write three hours

in the afternoon, go pick up a kid from school, and write at night. And after nine hours, you come out

meeting these people who have such diverse talents,

and you're able to create something together.
