So I don't know if you know who Ela Thier is but she's a screenplay writer. And though I've never seen a single screenplay of hers I took her writing seminar cause she promised to help break me out of my writing rut.

There was a good few years when I couldn't write at all. I did so much research. Actually bought a book called Heart, Sass, and Soul which was basically a way to journal your way out of writing blocks and I highly recommend it.

What people don't realize is creativity is a muscle. And you need to exercise it. I knew I wanted to be a creative professional for a long time and that means learning to work when the inspiration isn't there.

What I learned about meeting your creative goals is that you need to focus on the process and not the result. When I was first starting out I would speed write for five minutes. Just five minutes. And sometimes for those five minutes, I would just write over and over again "I don't know what to write. I don't know what to write." But I committed to those five minutes cause I told myself it was too easy to not do. And if all I had at the end of those five minutes were gibberish then I told myself that was fine. The more important thing I was exercising the muscle.

But then what do you know 3 years later it feels weird to have a day where I'm not writing or drawing. It's a habit now like brushing my teeth. I tell myself five minutes, but before I know it eight hours have passed by and I forgot to eat and stretch. (that's something I now need to work on.)

Just show up. It doesn't matter the results. Just show up and eventually you'll find your rhthym. Think of it like running. If you try to run for 8 hours straight when you're first starting out you will kill yourself. Don't do that to yourself. Ease your way into it. Make a goal so easy you can't not meet it and if it's still too hard make it easier.

Just don't give up. Showing up is more important than the result.

it actually makes me so sad that people consume media where every character is kind of an asshole and they just entirely overly sanitize every character and every problem thats caused by the being kind of an asshole thing. i loooove conflict i love people who suck. i love people who are good people but also still kind of suck in some ways because they are a person. most importantly you all do not understand the comedic potential of characters being kind of shitty to eachother.
