Today Is The Day You Have To

I Personally Was Driven To Be An Actor For The Love Of Telling A Story. It Was Very Closely Linked To Being A Reader As A Kid And Being Transported By Literature And Art. It Had Nothing - Zero - To Do With Anything Resembling Fame.

My Biggest Goal Was - I Thought, God, If I Could Just Be A Rep Company Member At The Arena Stage In Washington, D. C. And Get To Play A Bunch Of Parts In A Year! And Now In My Work Everything Is About Promoting It. It's Not About The Doing Of It! Everything Is: You Have To Sell It, And They Ask You To Tweet About It Or Do Photo Shoots, Even For The Smallest Job. There's An Imbalance In Terms Of What Is Actually Gratifying. The Stuff That Is Gratifying Is, Like I Said, The Day Of Work And The Doing Of It.

Texting Is Not Flirting, If You Don't Care About Me Enough To Say The Words Than That's Not Love, I Don't Like It!

I Feel Real Ownership In This Show. I Feel Very Invested In It. I Care Very Much About It. I Don't Feel Any More Like A Hired Hand, You Know? It's A Strange Feeling - I Feel Personally Responsible For How The Story Goes. What Happens. What The Weaknesses Are. And So In A Way, Some Of The Changes Gave Me An Opportunity To Have A Voice In A Different Way.

Getting Anywhere You Want Is Hard Work. In This Photography Culture, Everything Looks So Amazing. But It's Actually Very Hard To Get To Where Anybody Gets.
