Nobody tells you your work is bad. They tell you to keep going. It's kind, and it's a form of dishonesty — and Chris would rather you heard the other version, even when it stings.\n\nChris and I got into: — Why a good script isn't good enough anymore, and what the one-in-five-hundred ones do differently — What a Nashville songwriter told Chris at twenty-one that changed how he writes — How you can tell a performance is fake before you can say why — And why the clip you saw go viral had thirty thousand dollars behind it."}
