“Every drama school in the country turned me down, and so I was lucky to study drama at all, even if it was lowly Birmingham University.

“Do you want to do this thing? Sit down and do it. Are you not writing? Keep sitting there. Does it not feel right? Keep sitting there. Think of yourself as a monk walking the path to enlightenment. Think of yourself as a high school senior wanting to be a neurosurgeon. Is it possible? Yes. Is there some shortcut? Not one I've found. Writing is a miserable, awful business. Stay with it. It is better than anything in the world.” ThinkingWorldWantFeelsWritingDoeSchoolFoundPathWalkingEnlightenmentHigh SchoolSittingDown AndAwfulMiserableSeniorMonkThink Of YouFeels RightShortcutsNeurosurgeonsPath To EnlightenmentHigh School Senior Book:This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage Source: This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage
