It's so TEDIOUS writing cookbooks or writing the recipes because I've never been much of a measurer. But to write a BOOK, you have to MEASURE everything.

I hate it, it is TEDIOUS... when I write for my act, it is very improvisational, I write bullet POINTS, I cannot sit in front of a computer; that is not my STYLE.

I just LIKE the insides of THINGS and finding ways into microscopic worlds. There's also an element of control, taking things APART and putting them back TOGETHER. It's a very tedious task. You can be ALONE and create a world for yourself.

But I TEND to think of the expressive PART of me as RATHER TEDIOUS - never curious or responsive, but blind and self-serving.

Being an actor is often very TEDIOUS, which is why it helps hugely if your FELLOW cast MEMBERS are ALSO good friends.

I enjoyed WRITING in school. I don't know that I was all that good at it in school. I worked at it later. I feel COMFORTABLE writing now. I enjoy writing now. I SUSPECT, like most college STUDENTS, I viewed writing then to be more TEDIOUS.
