I’m a writer of many things, in several venues and more than one genre. Over the years I’ve heard that time-honored question more times than I can count: Where do you get your ideas?
Yeah, well, my question is more like, why aren’t you getting ideas every minute?
Just look around. No, not at the blank screen in front of you that you’re staring at and trying to come up with a story to write and fill all that white space. Embrace the white space, there’s no need to hate it. Really. Novel or script, you can fill it fast (or at least have a steady stream of ideas of stories).
