Ashley Winbush asked Josephine Angelini:

I wrote my first screenplay last year and can say that being a creative writer is seriously challenging. How do you keep your writing fresh and keep you mind from second guessing every direction you choose?

Josephine Angelini Oh, honey, second guessing yourself never ends! I really wish it did. Seriously, I woke up this morning looked at my outline and decided that I hated the next scene I was "supposed" to write and I had no idea what I was going to do to replace it. Then I sat and thought about it and decided I had no idea what I was doing pretending to be writer in the first place because I'm crap at it. The only thing I can do is get up tomorrow morning, open my computer and try again. That's the only trick to it, really. Stubbornness. :)
