Re: Screenwriting
by David Roth Weiss on Aug 11, 2009 at 4:39:05 am

[Mike Cohen] "Does anyone have an experience with screenwriting they would like to share?"

Mike,

The very best advice I ever got about writer's block came from my mentor at AFI, who said, "just remember, this isn't the last screenplay you're ever gonna write, it's just the first." He was implying that we all tend to hold on way to dearly our words, as if they might be our last. I try to remember his words whenever I write, and it really helps.
