Growing up where I did, the thought of working on a television show or in a movie... that existed on a parallel plane, you know?
Never be entirely idle; but either be reading, or writing, or praying or meditating or endeavoring something for the public good.
I would think, to me, growing up in the south, growing up with all the gospel music, singing in the church and having that rhythm and blues - the blues background was my big inspiration.
