If you become a creative writer with the idea that you are going to make a whole lot of money, then maybe this isn't the best choice for you.

I do get very involved in making a scene work without giving too much thought about how it affects the overall, which I think is hard to know in any case.

I like the writing life, but it's not something that always makes enough money.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.
