Psychological Road Blocks

I was going to start this out with boy do I ned to get off my ass and write, but that isn’t even the problem. Those who read my stuff, know I’m going through a big financial crisis. I’m not sure if I’m going to file for bankrupcy, but that option is on the table right now. And it SUCKS! Being overly anxious about my finances is bad enough, but now it’s affecting my writing. I already have bad internal censors as it is, but now they’re in overdrive. Before it’s like “Is this line good enough?” Now it’s “will this line make the difference between selling the script or not?” It’s a horrible way to go through the creative process. You can’t be thinking of money at every keystroke, but because of the potential for bankrupcy now, that’ where I’m at. Money should never determine what or how I write; money troubles however screw with your creative process. I’m in that boat right now.


I’m looking at a few ways to get out from under this. Meanwhile I have plenty of stuff to try and write. If I can keep my head from exploding in the process or not die in a pnaic over money, I’ll be okay.
