Dive into our trusted drafting resource for writers, by writers.
Being creative on a consistent basis is one of the biggest challenges of living the life of an artist.
After all, we can't schedule inspiration like a doctor's appointment. It's a little like trying to capture lightning in a bottle.
So how do you balance real life with the life of a creative writer? How do you continue creating when you don't feel all that creative?
It's true. Perfectionism IS killing your creativity. First drafts will never be perfect; this is not a remark to demoralize writers but a sincere reminder of actuality.
So let's explore the concept of perfectionism — only accepting something free of all flaws — and learn how overcoming such a view of your work could be the most significant step you take on your writing journey.
"Read, read, read," William Faulkner proclaimed. "Read everything — trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it, just like the carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write."
And, in our opinion, this exploration shouldn't be limited to literature.
Let’s explore this technique of creating inspiration for yourself no matter what the muses may be thinking.
