Screenwriter, Nicholl Top 50, addicted to caffeine and putting people he’s made up in his head through absolute hell. Nicer to real people.

There are 261 working days in 2025. If you write just 1 page a day, that’s just 250-300 wds a day, you can write 2 1/2 scripts or one novel by New Years Eve.

If you write just 2 pages a working day (600wds/day) you can write 5 scripts, 2 novels or one 150,000 word magnum opus.

Just. Keep. Writing.

Optimist: the glass is half full

Pessimist: the glass is half empty

Exec: we already have a project that contains a glass in it so I am afraid it is a pass

The part of your brain that creates is different from the part of your brain that interprets and edits, so when you edit while you write, you knock yourself out of your groove.

Write fearlessly then edit judiciously later, preferably with a break in between to gain perspective on the work.

So how are all you ex-Xs doing? Bearing up well? Rocking in a corner?

Very satisfying Frightfest - especially when I decided to go see a Swedish film (UK title: “In The Name Of God”)

Most enjoyable - but I also found a friend I hadn’t seen in years was in it and had come for the Q&A so got to have a pint with them and catch up!

So this is nice… how are you all? Enjoying what has been labelled the “X-odus”?
