When I was fourteen a Vietnamese friend let me borrow this movie called "Hard Boiled." I watched it and lent it to my best friend. We decided to make action films. After a couple plot-less action vehicles, I realized we should sit down and write a script before we shoot.

Writing? I couldn't get into med school, so I worked in a lab and took classes in SF and creative writing on the side. I'd always loved doing essays as an undergrad, and I loved this.

I figured why not try to write professionally, and I got into a graduate journalism program. A year later, I was working at Reader's Digest.

I started writing fiction in the creative writing class, and I even write a teleplay that got nibbles but no buy. As a freelance journalist, I found an original story that needed to be told, so I'm telling it as a screenplay. If nobody wants it, I can always turn it into an historical novel.
