    Re: How do you handle burn-out?

    Pleased I'm not alone, Chadstrohl.

    To clarify, "better" is missing before than more careful slow writing.



    I was writing quickly.

      I changed the font on my title page a couple of times today.

      Franklin Gothic Demi, size 24

      I wrote 14 mediocre rough draft pages but its the font change I'm proudest of.
      Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue

        Yeah, it's like when William Goldman says, write quickly, it seems to come out more true, something about getting it down fast.

          Funny how this really does happen. 6 months of painstaking work on a new spec and then a writer ruins it by shitting out a title page that's bold, italicized, size 32 font and might as well have a red flag on it.

          Kinda fits with the "calculate less" advice.

            Are you saying no to Comic Sans?

            Now, if final draft would only allow me to upload images.
