“Writers are very much undervalued in the creative process.” — Rachel Ward Quote

Writers are very much undervalued in the creative process.

You're in a movie because you're appealing and because you represent the aspiration, the fantasy, the ideal.

We all know we're one day closer to the end when we wake up in the morning. We just kid ourselves that it's not happening.

However cozy things seemed, the facts of life were the same. You couldn't escape death: It would get us all in the end.

I remember having to take detours around the Hollywood sign to avoid having to see this grotesque poster of myself on Sunset Boulevard.

Why my interest in writers? Well, I'm one, and many of my friends are writers. I know what it's like to write. I'm interested in the creative process. I'm fascinated by the disparity between who we are on the outside, and what we have bubbling away inside us.

With acting, you are a small part of the creative process, and sometimes it is hard to feel like you are making an impact.

I internalise every role that I do and my creative process sees me immerse myself with the setting and the character that I have at hand.

The creative process for me doesn't work as well without an image of an audience in mind.
