*blows a kiss* Goodnight everybody. #scriptchat

Well, I have work in the early morning. #scriptchat

And I think #scifi has the most danger of distraction. Especially for research. So much to look up to refine the world. #scriptchat

Great for research, but can suck you in until you forget you were just checking something to help your writing. #scriptchat

Seriously, Wikipedia with both a godsend and a Tantalus cruse. #scriptchat

Archetypes, I mean. #scriptchat

Like the hero's journey and enneagram versus the classical archatypes. #scriptchat

Part of my is paralysis has been deconstructing some famous writing tools. #scriptchat

Pin them down. #scriptchat

I'm so scattered right now. Ideas are flying about and I can't bin them down with actual words. #scriptchat

My biggest issue is how to get the story going. Where does my character start off. #scriptchat

Like how to make two moons form a stable orbital resonance and hold a ring system around a planet. #scriptchat

I'm also a compulsive planner. I can spend a day tinkering with the world I'm creating. #scriptchat

It's just waking up at 4AM all the time and the stress of being in this house. #scriptchat

I'm probably suffering from depression to some degree and I find myself just staring at a blank word processor. #scriptchat

My writing life is practically dead. Too much taking my energy. #scriptchat

Hello all you happy people. #scriptchat

*blows a kiss* Goodnight everybody! #scriptchat

A little early question, what is the current attitude in the writing world towards classical archetypes? #scriptchat

Hello all you happy people. #scriptchat
