I think what I would say to my younger self, and probably to younger, just starting-out writers is that a lot of times you're just afraid to put yourself out there, and it's uncomfortable because it's working up the courage to do something, to push yourself to do those things.

There are so many opportunities that I could've gotten before if I had just took a little more of a risk.

I feel I've always got to keep my stand-up because I never want to lose it.

My father was the kind of guy who'd always say 'Throw out any subject and I got a joke on it.'
