After watching the Brandon Lee movie, 'The Crow', I was sucked into the James O'Barr interview in the extra features portion of the DVD.
He may seem all over the place and quite scattered but I left feeling like in my scattered existence, if I just do something every day towards my goal, I will eventually get it done.
It took him nine years to get that Crow book together. While most of us are not interested in waiting that long, I like that his real life was sewn into the fabric of it.
It is a good lesson to make writing part of our life instead of a profession.
Hopefully we can come to a place where we love doing it so much and we have such an intimate relationship with the characters we are writing about that we don't care who is reading.
Back to the spirit of PLAY!
