My biggest bits of advice are, write as much as you can, finish what you start, get a thick skin, don't take crap from anyone, but also live your life and have fun.

Collaboration is just, really, a group of people getting in a room with their eye on a very similar prize and wanting to come out with the same show.

What I consider a good part for a woman and what some other Hollywood people think are good women's parts are very different.

Isabell, she treads so lightly, floating in her gipsy dresses
Even as her words cut deep, I can't deny the truth in them
On the phone, she talks a lot, and me, I listen hopelessly

And then I decide to give another random memory
To remind her of the first time we sang out to the sea
Oh Isabell, you always understood me
Please Isabell, forgive me now
