First, I want to say thanks for making 50/50. It offers great insight into what it's like to be a young adult cancer patient (an often overlooked group). I'm a comic and I think cancer can be pretty goddamn funny. Anyway, on to the questions:
I'd really like to get into writing, producing (and hopefully) acting. What do you think is the best way to get my foot in the door? PA work? Writers assistant? Working as a personal assistant to an established producer? None of the above?
How do you go about writing with a partner? Do you both write in separate locations or are you always in the same room? I've written with a partner before but I felt like it stifles the creative process to have someone in the room with me because I get self conscious.
