Being a little bit of a movie buff, the fact that I'm working in the middle of movie history is incredible.
Every movie I touched bombed.
I obsess over places I will never live and restaurants at which I aspire to eat.
I record a podcast, 'Shondaland Revealed,' every week while we are shooting.
I spent the better part of my developing years in Massachusetts.
I swear like a trucker when I'm excited.
I'm not interested in overexpanding rapidly for expansion's sake.
I'm very dogged when I believe in something. I'm also dark and twisty.
In a world where shows have to keep going while the priorities change, I have to stay flexible.
On 'Scandal,' they've proven that they're not scared of shocking the audience.
Sometimes, I cry because I'm sad, and sometimes, I cry just because it's just emotional and it's super awesome.
The goal for Shondaland is to continue to make very good shows that we're proud of when they're ready.
We take the suggestions people give us and build the best reality we can for them.
Women on television are not a fad; we are not a trend - we are a reality!
