Read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read...if you don't read, you will never be a filmmaker.

Reading is everything. reading makes me feel like i've accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. reading makes me smarter. reading gives me something to talk about later on. reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it's a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it's a way of making contact with someone else's imagination after a day that's all too real. reading is grist. reading is bliss.
Real Reading Book
I am a product of endless books. my father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. there were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...in the seemingly endless rainy afternoons i took volume after volume from the shelves. i had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.

If you are going to write, say, fantasy - stop reading fantasy. you've already read too much. read other things; read westerns, read history, read anything that seems interesting, because if you only read fantasy and then you start to write fantasy, all you're going to do is recycle the same old stuff and move it around a bit.
Moving Reading Writing
My advice is this. for christ's sake, don't write a book that is suitable for a kid of 12 years old, because the kids who read who are 12 years old are reading books for adults. i read all of the james bond books when i was about 11, which was approximately the right time to read james bond books.
Book Reading Writing
I never need to find time to read. when people say to me, ‘oh, yeah, i love reading. i would love to read, but i just don’t have time,’ i’m thinking, ‘how can you not have time?’ i read when i’m drying my hair. i read in the bath. i read when i’m sitting in the bathroom. pretty much anywhere i can do the job one-handed, i read.

Raising a child is an on-the-job kind of thing. there arent a whole lot of manuals for that.
Jobs Children Kind
I was never told to "get up, get out there, get a job." it was never a thing either parent ever said i had to do. it was what i wanted to do. i think i was very interested in being away from them as much as possible. employment was great for that.

Ordinary people, simply doing their jobs, and without any particular hostility on their part, can become agents in a terrible destructive process. moreover, even when the destructive effects of their work become patently clear, and they are asked to carry out actions incompatible with fundamental standards of morality, relatively few people have the resources needed to resist authority.
Jobs People Ordinary
And now life has become the future. every moment of your life is lived for the future—you go to high school so you can go to college so you can get a good job so you can get a nice house so you can afford to send your kids to college so they can get a good job so they can get a nice house so they can afford to send their kids to college.
