Try movie soundtracks. They are designed to not be to overt and yet create a mood over time. Choose full soundtrack albums and don't shuffle the music, let its progression of songs build up. Lord of the Rings soundtrack, Harry Potter, and anything by John Williams start off smooth and you end up writing like you are being chased by wolves. The length is often convenient to a good writing session, helping us ND writers stay to the end. You don't want lyrics confusing the verbal part of your brain so stay the the melodic and soundscapes. The Blade Runner soundtrack makes me imagine I write like Hemingway, a drink in one hand, pecking at a manual typewriter. The Batman soundtrack will make your brooding much more intense... And it will make you write like Batman. Cheers and good writing.
Yes!! I just went to the LA Phil for the first time and heard the Harry Potter scores and it was magical and moving. I will definitely be writing to it when I rewrite my fantasy. I definitely do get distracted with the lyrics sometimes in my music while writing, it’s a good point that instrumentals help so much and the length makes it that much better.
I relate to this a lot. Learning about my neurodivergent brain has helped me better understand why i do the things i do. Body doubling and Journaling has made a big difference. I found writing first thing in the morning brings out my best ideas. Keep making more content about you creative process because it's always good to see how others get the creativity out.
So glad you can relate!! Yes exactly! It is so nice to understand my own brain and give it what it needs to flow better and create. I’m glad journaling and body doubling works for you too, I love hearing what works for others.
Thank you so much for the encouragement to keep talking about the writing process! Wishing you tons of success. 🙌
this is SO helpful. i realized last year that i want to do screenwriting, so ive been trying to build more consistent habits to get into it and build a portfolio. for me, something that helps my writers block a lot is watching a movie and analyzing it, but for the longest time i thought i was just "being lazy" but it really is great for getting me to think about my story structures and how to get through writing character arcs
Welcome to screenwriting!! It really does help internalize the structure when you watch it. It’s my favorite thing to do before or after I read the script! I try to pinpoint beginning and ends of the acts and any major beats and I’ve started teaching my family story by pointing it out too. It becomes a fun game.🤭
@@PikaLeeMedia thank you so much!! yesss i've gotten my writer friends to analyze movie beats with me and i think its helping us all improve our craft a lot!
@pop-punkreptile5827 🥳
You have the same brain that I do! At least I know I'm onto something. 2k/100k words at the moment and I ended up here, distracted. xD
Yay for the same brains! I have never tackled a 100K project before, so I am rooting for you! I have friends who write Sci-Fi and Epic Fantasy primarily and I admire the heck out of them for it.
So helpful! Thank you!
I loved this, it was great tips and info. Some I do already! I'll definitely be putting these other tips to use to stay up on game!!
GREAT
I do a lot of the same things. Didn't know I'm neurodivergent until last year
It’s incredible how we unconsciously do these little things to help ourselves write or create art! It’s really great to know what makes us tick. 😁
Your voice sounds ai 😭
