Question for everyone:
Does anyone you ever get emotional while you’re writing? Like, actually cry?
I’ve noticed it happens to me most when I’m really visualizing a scene as a director—almost like I’m watching the finished movie in my head.
It’s not even necessarily because the scene is sad. Sometimes it’s just because it suddenly feels real, like I’m witnessing it instead of inventing it.
I’m curious if anyone else experiences this, or if your process is completely different. What does it feel like for you when you know you’re really “inside” a scene? The attached image is part of my conversation with my ChatGPT lol.
