I was intentionally curbing the impulse to be funny and hiding the ability. I wrote any number of very serious attempts at poems, short stories, novels - horrible. At a certain point, I recognized that it was fun to write dialogue that had a degree of lightness and humor.

Ich habe absichtlich den Impuls eingeschränkt, witzig zu sein und die Fähigkeit zu verbergen. Ich schrieb eine Reihe sehr ernster Versuche mit Gedichten, Kurzgeschichten, Romanen - schrecklich. An einem bestimmten Punkt erkannte ich, dass es Spaß machte, Dialoge zu schreiben, die leicht und humorvoll waren.

I wrote the book because I wanted to be able to share some things that I had learned and as pompous as that may sound, as you get to a certain point in life, you figure so what am I doing?

Toni Collette has been a huge influence. She was my absolute number one idol, and then I got 'United States of Tara.' I was pinching myself. I couldn't believe the first day I was on set, and I got pages of dialogue of real stuff to do with her.
