All the forms of the arts I perform now are strongly linked and each of them has acted as a bridge that led me to one another very smoothly. Starting with writing, I was once asked to stand up and perform one of my written stories to a real audience, and that was when I first found myself feeling and admiring this kind of live interaction with a performer and receiver, which had turned me onto the love of theatrical acts since then. Then after learning more about this world, starting out as an actor, which I succeeded in, I thought that as an art lover and viewer in the first place, it's my duty to deliver valuable content, and turn the greatest of novel that I've read and always wanted to see being performed on stage, into theatrical acts, and so I did from the perspective of the director I've become. So my love for the art, my aspiration to have something to wake up for everyday and get back to bed knowing I've been productive, and see my favourite characters and novels brought to life, were my real motivations to become a writer, an actor, and a director. This said, I can say that I actually started acting and directing for the love of art, as I always wanted to literally live the novel and become a real part of it, not just another reader.
