Obviously, I like to write stories that are page-turners. But I always try my very, very hardest to be as factually true as possible.

When I was 20, I wrote a film on spec and sent it to the BBC. They wrote back, 'Usually, when we reject submissions, we like to offer some encouragement, but in your case, we don't see any point in you continuing.' I took it as encouragement anyway, thinking that only people who write terrible things are capable of writing great things.

My entry into screenwriting was not smooth.
