jobs responsibility thinking
Directing is a big responsibility to take on. I think I'm only good at doing things I know very well. I don't direct movies because I get offered the new vampire movie or science fiction movie.

I only do things about people and situations, and I do the ones that I think I'm the best guy for the job on, which is usually something I generate myself. Billy Bob Thornton

Billy Bob Thornton

But novels are never about what they are about; that is, there is always deeper, or more general, significance. The author may not be aware of this till she is pretty far along with it. A novel's whole pattern is rarely apparent at the outset of writing, or even at the end; that is when the writer finds out what a novel is about, and the job becomes one of understanding and deepening or sharpening what is already written. That is finding the theme. Diane Johnson
jobs regret talent
