Screenwriter, Playwright & Novelist
I write screenplays for animated features, feature films, and Broadway musicals.
I'll get hired by a company like Disney to come up with a story and screenplay. That's my task. Then my creative process starts and, for me, that begins with walking. I go on walks and start working on ideas. Then I come home and begin writing. I'll take breaks here and there for meetings and things, but I spend the majority of my days writing until I have a piece to present.
Here's the first step for everyone
Don't worry about what anyone else is doing. Put blinders on yourself and focus on your own path. Just set your own goals and start moving forward.
