After leaving ImageMovers, I sold two pitches to Fox Atomic, which I then wrote for them.

Losing a parent over eight years is a very dark journey. I spent the first four years feeling bad and angry and sorry for myself.

I went to film school, so I certainly know how to make things quickly and cheaply. But at the same time, I have the experience of working with Steve Starkey for three years. I watched him produce some gigantic movies.

When you have a writing partner and you're writing a comedy, your goal is to make each other laugh.

Sometimes I find I'm wearing a divided, split brain in terms of drama and humor.

You won't find me in a romantic comedy. Those movies don't speak to me. People don't come to talk to me about those scripts, because they probably think I'm this dark, twisted, miserable person.

This satire business, that was one of the worst things that ever happened to me. I was certified funny. From then on, I had to be funny - people expected it. Twice the work for the same pay.

I love period dramas and language, but I love comedy as well.
