"People
ask me how it feels to write a play. I'll tell you, when you're on a
roll, and the dialog is flowing, and the characters start thinking for
themselves, it gets exciting. Sometimes those little scamps get away
from me, go into strange and uncharted lands where even I don't know
what they'll find. That is writer's heaven"
