We were given clear concrete tools. The course did a great job demystifying the art of fiction writing and fostering confidence. The instructor brought complex concepts down to earth. I will miss coming here every week.

My favorite place in the whole world is Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Traffic' was so good, and I really don't want to take a step back.

I thought 'ER' was a really good script, but I didn't have any inkling that it would become the phenomenon that it did, and I don't think anybody did back then.

I wanted to stay on TV because I've got kids who are school-aged, so I get to see them most days as opposed to going away for movies months and months at a time.

If everything else falls apart and I'm broke, in 20 years I'll still be able to do 'Twin Peaks' conventions.

I don't know what it is that I do, but when I play a really bad guy, I'm able to bring some level of likability to it.

I think my parents undoubtedly influenced me on some level.

Having grown up around the theater, I've been moved by so many plays. Being a part of it, however small, is special.

I was drawn to it much to my father's dismay. He wanted me to be a pianist like he was, but I had coarser tastes - like that old joke: What do you call a guy who hangs around with musicians? A drummer.
