Melanie Ansley Besides my day job as a screenwriter, I'm working on Volume 2 in my "Book of Theo" series, an epic fantasy about a rabbit who must use his ability to read and write to save his fellow animals. If I had to do an elevator pitch, I'd say it was a cross between the "Redwall" series and "Game of Thrones".
Melanie Ansley As with anything creative, learn by doing. Don't worry about so called "failure", and if you can, embrace it instead.
Melanie Ansley The only way through writer's block is to write. Write something, anything. We have an inner perfectionist who sometimes won't let us write for fear of failure. But that's where deadlines and writing exercises come in: create a write or die situation where you have to turn in something, even if it's imperfect. An imperfect something will always be better than a perfect nothing.
