When you think about being a director, you think about writing stories, putting the camera in interesting places and directing the actors to get your vision, but it's hard to imagine even this process... sitting here nine months later talking about the film and talking about it 20 times in one day. You don't even think about the part where you come to the set every morning and everyone's looking at you to see your mood in order to see what the day is going to be like, and the influence that you wield.
I started writing stories when I was 9 or 10. I wrote my first screenplay-type document when I was 14.
I don't think I'd ever write anything that I don't also direct just because it's so hard and painful to write as it is.
