Video: “On Craft” #3

on By 1 Comment

I recently filmed another short craft video as part of my involvement with the South Gate Creative Writing School here in Denmark (link). In this video, I talk briefly about how I overcome writer’s block. For the final version of the video in which other authors discuss the same, check out the school’s youtube here.

Here I talk about three ways that I overcome writer’s block (although I have many more):
1) Have a side project/pet project/fun project in a different genre
2) Aesthetics/moodboards
3) Talk to your friend about your block OUT LOUD

I recently filmed another short craft video as part of my involvement with the South Gate Creative Writing School here in Denmark (link). In this video, I talk briefly about how I (attempt to!) structure my writing throughout my daily life. For the final version of the video in which other authors discuss the same, check out the school’s youtube here.

Here I talk about two ways that I (attempt to!!) structure my writing in my daily life:
1) Create goals for one week at a time (not days!), so the deadlines are flexible within the week
2) Pitch/mentorship events and programs on twitter as way of imposing deadlines on myself
