tangents

never a straight line

If I had to choose one rule, one piece of advice, to put on a sticky that never left my sight, this would be it.

The advice I'd give you is to embrace your unique experiences and write something you're really passionate about—the script you have to write, that only you could have written. The more fearless and vulnerable you can be on the page, the more you can write things that you're afraid your friends or parents or whoever will judge you for, the more it's likely to hook a potential reader.

As Kurt Vonnegut said, “It is this genuine caring, not your games with language, which will be the most compelling and seductive element in your style.”
