There is something unwholesome and destructive about the entire writing process.
I used to always throw in random questions. I'd have to ask about artist's single and their writing process, which I know is every artist's most-hated question, like, "Well what was ,your process?" And it's. like, "Well, I wrote this album." And then at the end I would throw in, like, "So, Seinfeld or Simpsons?" and they'd be so thrown, because everything else could be autopilot. All my greatest moments were from the most sporadic questions.
I'll tell you what I was most surprised to discover about my writing process, and that is that I never know what I'm doing.
I love the writing process. It's something that I'm interested in personally and something I always do on every movie.
I love the structural part of the writing process.
I don't see myself directing things I don't write because, to me, directing was just an extension of the writing process.
In a lot of senses, things are definitely changing in my life, and with what's going on around me. But I still feel like the writing process is as intimate as it as before, if not more. Because I need my time more than I had before.
