Create Great Stuff

by

Leaving the system behind and creating something of your own may actually be thing that gets you into the system, hopefully on your own terms.The point is, forget the gatekeepers. As far as I’m concerned, what you create in a 30-seat, hole-in-the-wall improv theater in Phoenix can be far more meaningful than a mediocre sitcom being half-watched by seven million people. America doesn’t need more stuff. We need more great stuff. You could make that.
