Be honest with your inner thoughts. Only then can you change. Ex: Don’t tell yourself “I’m not afraid” tell yourself “I am afraid. And I judge myself for it. I don’t want to be afraid, and I don’t want to judge myself, but that is the truth. And the truth is how I’ll change it”

@jack More important than Twitter, a platform which directly influences the outcome of elections that have intense worldwide ramifications?

@getpaidwrite To play devil's advocate here, I'd say it depends on your energy level. If you're exhausted, embrace the silence rather than filling it with junk-- agreed! But If you've got the brain power, I've found listening to audiobooks and smart podcasts help make you a better writer.

Great writers embrace the power of silence instead of hiding from their thoughts with podcasts and audiobooks.

@FindJimClair I’ve found something like this helpful when writing specs for tv shows you admire. You can pick your favorite episodes of a show and write a scene by scene identical structure w/ your own narrative in place. I did this with Always Sunny’s “the gang tries to win an award” episode

Raymond Chandler is one of the greatest writers of all time. He came to his mystery writing career late in life. But he used an exercise to shape and craft his writing. And it helped him become the 🐐 I'll share it below, and a few other things that made him great.

@getpaidwrite wondering what your aspirations are as a writer and if your focus on building a Twitter following has sucked time out of you reaching these writing goals or have been beneficial in ways you could never have imagined. (Or somewhere in between 🤷‍♂️) thanks!

I don’t really believe in “writer’s block.” To me, this just means you haven’t figured it out yet. But you will! My advice? Just get something— anything— on the page. For all you know, you may discover something beautiful that switches up your whole story

@limersbey_oo @creation247 I get that. Guess that’s why college is less and less popular/less of a necessity these days

@Snowy_Freckles @creation247 Might sound harsh but I don't think people should take big loans to study at college unless they're confident of getting a well paid job afterwards.

@limersbey_oo @creation247 One would hope! But there’s also countless examples of this. I have a friend who did grad school in earth science at Columbia and now works 12 hours per day at a climate non profit earning, naturally, a non profit salary with loans and whatnot

@Snowy_Freckles @creation247 If someone went to medical school surely they'll earn enough over the course of their careers to pay off their student loan?

@dickiebush Hey dickie— agreed! Wondering what sort of advice you’d give for people who don’t know what to write. Where do they start? What material do they practice with?

Writing is the foundation for all creative work: • Video-making • Storytelling • Podcasting • Designing • Teaching • Selling It all begins with writing. Which is why writing every day is the most powerful personal habit you can develop.

You don't have to stay where you are. Your past doesn't have to define you. Your story isn't written yet because it's NOT over.
