About 15 years ago, I managed to join a screenwriting workshop lead by Tony Grisoni, who wrote Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Southcliffe and Red Riding.
He was giving general writing advice, and said his top recommendation was to “get a really solid pair of walking boots…”
That might sound strange to anyone who’s never written a script before, but the small group in the workshop got it.
Much of the writing process doesn’t look like ‘writing’.
Feeling stuck?
Take a walk.
Things often have a way of working themselves out when you’re not at your desk.
