Tom Berenger

My mother, sister and I watched through the windows as my father gambled.

There's a hysterical, tired sense of humor that comes after working 14 hours a day, six days a week. I like those things because they take the pressure off the constant stress.

While I was doing these plays in the beginning, I wasn't getting paid. I thought of it more as a hobby. Then I realized how seriously a lot of these people took what they were doing.

I am thrilled to get the chance to write comics - and to tell Forgotten Realms tales, to boot!

Recently, I was in Bernalda, my dad's ancestral home town in Italy. He has just refurbished a palazzo and turned it into a hotel, so we had my sister's wedding there. It was beautiful.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.
