Which is true in some ways – but that’s only part of the story. Written and Produced by Matthew C. Temple Edited by Tyen Musa Original Theme Music by Adrian Lee ABOUT ME I started ...

And then when you do, you need to start making choices - what sentence to write, what rhyme to cut. And you might add the wrong thing and cut out the part that was great. I have scripts that I've written, that are just not great. But I had to put it out there and then went back and did a whole rewrite, and then it got a little bit better, and then did a whole rewrite. But I couldn't have gotten to the fifth rewrite, that's pretty...
