A lot of actors choose parts by the scripts, but i don't trust reading the scripts that much. i try to get some friends together and read a script aloud. sometimes i read scripts and record them and play them back to see if there's a movie. it's very evocative; it's like a first cut because you hear 'she walked to the door,' and you visualize all these things. 'she opens the door' . . . because you read the stage directions, too.

I've been writing for a long time, since the late '60s. but it hasn't been in the same form. i used to write scripts for television. i wrote for my comedy act. then i wrote screenplays, and then i started writing new yorker essays, and then i started writing plays. i didn't start writing prose, really, until the new yorker essays, but they were comic. i didn't start writing prose, really, until the '90s. in my head, there was a link between everything. one thing led to another.
