QuoteI think people see inspiration as the ignition that starts the process. In fact, real moments of inspiration often come at the last minute, when you've sweated and fretted your way through a couple of drafts. Suddenly, you start to see fresh connections, new ways of doing things. That's when you feel like you're flying. The real pleasure of any script is the detail. And a lot gets lost in the process. Put it back in at the last minute.

Thanks for that one leek, it was a good read. I'll definitely be coming back to that when I feel like writing something.

I really liked point 6, something I agree whole heartedly in.
