Brian Koppelman and letting your voice out.

“But the moment I was waking up earlier, going into a room, generating pages. I started walking straighter. I started, as I say, moving more lightly through the world, and I have found that whenever I talk about this, I get hundreds of letters from people who realize that they’re in the same bind I was in and that they hear this quiet voice and they’ve been scared to let it out.

And I started to be able to identify myself as a writer, as a creative person, so that as long as I wrote every day I was a writer, I didn’t need someone else to say it.”
