"If you want to do this - either write for TV, or write books - the first thing you have to do is write a lot. And I mean a ridiculous amount."

The only thing that I always do - is once I've taken on a job, even just to do one scene in a movie, I ask myself, "What's happened the moment the kid was born, until page one of the script?" To answer that simple question, I have an infinite amount of work to do. And I enjoy that part as much as I enjoy any part of making movies.
