Good morning! I'm a little quieter on here at the moment, as I attempt to get the first/riot/vomit/ugly draft of the script I'm working on finished... and, like many of us, I sometimes find it hard to keep motivated. So, earlier I was looking through the very first writing notebook I kept, and realised I'd found and recorded lots of quotes about writing. Here's one that is hugely relevant for me today... "Writing is the art of applying the ass to the seat." - Dorothy Parker What's your favourite quote on writing? And what keeps you motivated? Happy writing! Mark :-)

Hey! I'm so pleased you're here. I'm on a mission to create a community of aspiring writers, writers for fun, and award-winners-to-be, where we can all share our ideas, work and inspiration, and I can share my knowledge and passion for creating worlds, people and work that moves people - to laughter, tears, action, and everything in between. If you haven't already, please take a moment to introduce yourself (using our 10 interview questions, if you like) in a new post (Community tab>>Write Something) And then, what better time to start writing than right now, with the free Scene One 7-day 'get writing' challenge. But first, a quick question What are you hoping to see and do and learn here? (There are no wrong answers to this!) Please do reach out and say hello. Happy Writing! Mark :-)
