I have a hard time writing. most writers have a hard time writing. i have a harder time than most because i'm lazier than most. [...] the other problem i have is fear of writing. the act of writing puts you in confrontation with yourself, which is why i think writers assiduously avoid writing. [...] not writing is more of a psychological problem than a writing problem. all the time i'm not writing i feel like a criminal. [...] it's horrible to feel felonious every second of the day. especially when it goes on for years. it's much more relaxing actually to work.

Essentially, the scripts are not that different. let's say, in literary terms, it's the difference between writing horizontally and writing vertically. in live television, you wrote much more vertically. you had to probe people because you didn't have money or sets or any of the physical dimensions that film will allow you. so you generally probed people a little bit more. film writing is much more horizontal. you can insert anything you want: meadows, battlefields, the taj mahal, a cast of thousands. but essentially, writing a story is writing a story.
