Freezing points, writers block, laziness!

At one time or another, all writers will experience a freezing point, writers block or just run flat into: a laziness spell!

One of my writing coaches told me that two things will help us move through those times a lot quicker.

First: Using a screenplay planning sheet

Second: Giving ourselves a reward after finishing our script.

=========================================================
Using a Screenplay Planning Sheet
=========================================================

When you can look at your project on a 2 page "snap shot", your brain tends to loosen up a bit and the creative wheels begin to turn again.

If you just read & re-read your actual script... you may tend to get "paralysis of anaysis".

=========================================================
Giving Ourselves A Reward After Finishing Our Script
=========================================================

What kind of reward? How about a new "how to write a script" book? How about a screenplay writing DVD?

Too many times writers do more studying on the topic than they do actually WRITING! This isn't for you! I want you to read/watch JUST ONE 'how to' book/dvd and then write a complete screenplay!

Once you've completed that project... feel free to buy another book/dvd (just 1) and then start your next project.

Happy New Years!
Brian
