I'm an artist. Artists don't need permission to work. Regardless of whether I'm acting or not, I write. I write when I'm tired in fact, because I believe your most pure thoughts surface.

I don't believe in art. I believe in artists.

I believe in the verb, not the noun - I am not a writer, but someone compelled to write.

I love all types of music. Jazz, classical, blues, rock, hip-hop. I often write scripts to instrumentals like a hip-hop artist. Music inspires me to write. It's either music playing or completely silent. Sometimes distant sound fuels you. In New York there's always a buzzing beneath you.

I believe in collaboration. I think that is the most entertaining and effective way to write for me, personally.

I believe in creative work.
