Let It Be Said That

It's Possible That I've Matured As A Writer, And I Hope I've Matured Emotionally, But I Always Find Myself Revisiting These Adolescent Scenes.

The Things That I Write Are Autobiographical In A Surreal Sense, Like When You Have A Dream And You Go To The Doctor's Office, But Then You Turn Around And It's Actually Your Childhood Home And The Doctor Has Turned Into Ryan Reynolds.

The Fact Is, When I Wrote 'juno' - And I Think This Is Part Of Its Charm And Appeal - I Didn't Know How To Write A Movie. And I Also Had No Idea It Was Going To Get Made!

I Think It's Great When Writers Get Recognition; It Doesn't Happen Very Often. I Just Don't Want That Writer To Be Me. Let It Be Aaron Sorkin Or, You Know, Somebody Good.

I Don't Know If I Have Some Kind Of Defiance Disorder Or Something, But If I'm Hired To Write Something By "the Man," Or By A Studio, For Whatever Reason, It's Really Hard For Me To Finish. I Inevitably Wind Up Using That Time To Write Something Else.
