I'm an actor, I'm not a comedian, I never was a comedian.

As a writer, I haven't delved into dramatic writing. As an actor, I could always, even more so than comedy, do drama.

Writing has made me a better actor. Acting has made me a better writer. So why wouldn't directing make me a better actor and writer?

As an actor, you tell part of a story. As a writer, you get more of telling that story. But as a director, they're seeing the world through your eyes.
