Showbiz: I Really Don’t Want to Be a Director!

Being a director is exhausting: preparing a script takes too much effort, raising funds takes too much luck, filming wears out your body, and promoting a release shaves years off your life. If you can avoid it, you probably shouldn't do it.

Screenwriting suits me better. I can make money by tapping away at a keyboard, and being out of the spotlight won't disrupt my life.

Best of all, once you have enough hit works to your name and have made enough stars, you can still wield unrivaled power in the entertainment industry!

It's decided: I'll be a screenwriter for the rest of my life...

I hope I always will be.
