But I must say I am happiest when something hits and I've written it with Barry. After all these years, I am still amazed by his genius.

I had written this really depressing ending in which when everybody says you get over things, and I thought I would love again, but wrong again.

Barry and I were in the middle of building a house, and I was in the midst of having a nervous breakdown, because that's what you do when you build a house.

You just have to believe in yourself when you've got something, and just keep pounding on the door, because if you pound long enough, somebody is going to open it.

We all have fertile creative periods and times when we can't figure out how we ever did it.

My nature is to be linear, and when I'm not, I feel really proud of myself.
