Can you tell us about your directing experiences?

It�s heaven.

I grew up making films and always thought that�s what I wanted to do. I fell into writing, and have been a writer for a long time, and now I�m at a place where I look forward to the opportunity to get behind the camera and direct some of the things that I write.

I find it unbelievably easier than writing. For no other reason than you have a hundred people helping you, and every time you move there�s a chair under your butt, so that�s certainly a good thing. So you have all these incredibly talented people to work with, it�s not the isolated kind of trauma that writing is.

You�re out there collaborating with other people and it�s a lot of fun. For me, anyway, it�s no big mystery on how to direct because I have a rapport with the actors. They�re all very talented, and if I see something in my head a certain way it�s very easy for me to communicate to them how I would like to see it. They�ll have ideas how to make it better, and I�m seeing the movie in my head as I�m writing it, so I�m not really walking onto the set, wondering "How do I accomplish this?"
