Write off the Map…
Sunday, December 14th, 2008When I went Freelance I had all these grand visions of huge writing output. All the scripts I’d crank out and the novel I’d finish and the short story compilation I’d finally get around to wrapping up and…
Yeah.
With editing, and Everyday Driver, I quickly found myself writing less than I did when I had a full time studio job! Over time I realized that editing actually uses many of the same skills and part of my brain as my writing, so I was getting that need fed.
But I also realized I’d become as soured to that part of the business as everything else. I just didn’t want to write and do the little “writer with a new script dance”. It felt like going through the motions.
