I never intended to be a writer. It only came out of the frustration over how few roles there are for women that are really interesting or juicy. Generally speaking, five or six or seven ladies get to do those parts, and the rest of us are relegated to supporting the wonderful male roles—playing girlfriends and wives and that kind of thing. So writing just felt like a way to be proactive about my own work.
