With family dramas, it's hard to keep those stories alive.
We are our stories. We tell them to stay alive or keep alive those who only live now in the telling.
My life is storytelling. I believe in stories, in their incredible power to keep people alive, to keep the living alive, and the dead.
I know that to write you have to have stories you want to tell. You have to keep your mind alive, and you have to work hard.
I think maybe short stories operate in some of the same ways that poems do. They frame single or small moments and elevate those. They give you insight into more minor dramas maybe, dramas between smaller groups of people.
There are many dramas that I would like to make: dramas based on real stories. It's approaching things from the other side.
We all have such stories. It is a brutal arithmetic. But I - I am alive. You are alive. As long as we breathe, we can see and hear. As long as we can remember, all those gone before are alive inside us.
I think I'm interested in these kinds of character dramas, psychological dramas, domestic dramas, whatever you want to call them - comedy dramas.
Painting and photography keep the creative channel open, and for an actor, it's to keep alive, it's to keep awake, it's to keep watching, it's to keep feeling, it's to keep enjoying, to keep that sensuality of feeling alive.
Family dramas are tough, as a playwright. Most stories are about characters going on a trip or a new character coming to town, because that's how you learn information about them. But with family, they all know each other already. There's years of history in every interaction.
I love playing a dad. It's hard to find family dramas that are genuinely funny.
Whatever career you're in, whether it's business or sports, it's hard to keep friendships alive. It's hard to keep them thriving and remain interested in each other's lives when you have so much going on personally.

Sometimes dramas or happenings from 10 or 20 years ago are kept alive by people on a daily basis, whether it's personal issues or bigger things such as what happened with Princess Diana in your country. Some people are still obsessed by that... or JFK and can't let it go. Films and newspaper articles keep being born out of those events.
So much of life's dramas, good and bad, play out against family and so it's really inspiring for any number of stories in all the fields I write in.
Family is so central to Afghan life that all Afghan stories are family stories. Family is something I simply can't resist because all the great themes of human life - duty, grief, sacrifice, love, envy - you find all those things within families.
It was what became something of a pattern in the first couple of years of the Clinton White House and maybe even longer, where information would drip, drip, drip, drip, drip out which would keep stories alive, alive, alive.
