Screenwriting : Accurate for Writers? by Tammy Hunt

Tammy Hunt

Accurate for Writers?

Is this your experience?

Bill McCormick

You need a tequila wedge.

Leonardo Ramirez

Too funny. Surfing the internet does include research so that part is accurate. I'm on a keto diet which takes out the binge snacking. Other than that...pretty accurate.

Maurice Vaughan

Change "Surfing the Internet" for "Actual Writing" for me, Tammy Hunt. No "Binge Snacking." :)

Peter Gartner

Inspiration can come from within, by access to the Collective Subconscious.

Leonardo Ramirez

Maurice Vaughan Keto and intermittent fasting has done wonders for me!

Dawn Greenfield

Nope. My actual writing is half the circle. Reading is 1/2 of the other half of the circle. Binge snacking doesn't exist in my world.

Maybe for unemployed writers. The folks I know who write for a living are very disciplined; many don't even have a social media presence.

Jim Boston

Tammy, good one!

Me, I'd have to say my own pie has just three wedges: "Surfing the Internet," "Reading for Inspiration," and "Actual Writing." [Okay...surfing takes up half my circle (and mainly just to get writing ideas), reading is 25%, and writing's the remaining 25%.]

Still...thanks for posting!

Mine actually replaces "surfing the internet" and "binge snacking" with "working out/exercise" and a slice devoted to creating the best possible play list to act as a soundtrack to my project.

BUT that yellow slice (actually writing) is vibrant and has bold, LARGE CAPITAL LETTERS.

Ty Strange

No binge snacking or playing wordsmith for me, Tammy Hunt. And surfing the internet would fall under research. Though now I'm hungry for a slice of pie.

Doug Nelson

My productive hours: Half are working on my FL script and the other half is teaching myself to play pedal steel guitar. Internet time is limited to research to both and very little is spent wasting time on internet now.

Tammy Hunt Hi Tammy, I’d say that reading for inspiration and surfing the internet for research is a huge chunk of that pie, for me.

I’ve never written “The” and then deleted it. Once I’m ready to write, nothing stops me!

Binge snacking. Nope, I tend to lose out on food till I have something down that I’m happy with.

David Abrookin

This is great! Add "finding the right music to write to" and it's pretty accurate for me

Marcel Nault Jr.

Guilty as charged.

However, when I work on something, I give it 100%.

Craig D Griffiths

When doing everything on the wheel I am thinking about writing. Getting my butt in the sit is sometime harder. But I do love writing.
