Women Tend To Be Categorized As Madonnas

Showrunning Is Not A One-man Job; It's Literally Impossible To Do For One Person. I Have Learned The Hard Way Now From Two Seasons, One With Red Widow, And This, I Can't Control Everything. I Certainly Have Tried, But Having An Incredibly Strong Team Around You, Surrounding Yourself With Incredibly Talented People, That Is The Trick, And I Certainly Had That For The First Season Here Of Jessica Jones.

I Don't Assume, Because I Can Write Screenplays, That I Know How To Write A Novel. It's A Very Different World. There's A Craft Involved In Storytelling, And It's A Different Kind Of Craft. But Yes, Someday I Will Do That. It Just Might Be Awhile.

I've Started A Company, Called Tall Girl Productions, And We've Got Our First Project That Is Purely Producing, Not Writing, With A Writer Named Evan Daugherty. It's For Nbc, It's Called Afterthought, And It's Science Fiction-ish. That's Fun.

Because I Work In Television, I Always Knew That I Loved Working With Writers. It's Very Collaborative. You're Always In A Room Full Of Writers.

It Doesn't Matter If You're The Smartest Person In The Room: If You're Not Someone Who People Want To Be Around, You Won't Get Far. Likewise For Helping Those In Line Behind You. I Take Seriously My Role As A Mentor To Young Female Filmmakers - I Make Sure My Time Is Tithed.
