First I thought I didn’t have anything to write about.
Then I reminded myself why I have a blog.
The blog is not there for me to write brilliant entries for the world to awe at. Brilliant is a bonus in case it ever happens.
The blog is there for me to keep writing even when I feel there is nothing to write about.
I need the audience to push myself. I need to feel that there is someone watching, someone judging what I do. Or don’t do.
The progress bar for what ever feature script I’m working on is there for the same reason. I need to keep it moving to look good, to be an apt pupil and do my homework. And keep me writing!
This might sound silly, or idiotic even, but is has aided me a great deal. That’s a fact.
And now I’ve been blogging for so long that I almost forgot why I started to write. That it is the blogging that got me moving and helped me to make progress.
And suddenly I find myself thinking that I don’t need to write today, because there is nothing to write about.
Sunlight’s progress bar moves too slow.
The hen or the egg?
Do I write too little on my script because I’ve hard time getting started because I write too little overall, like blogging? Or the other way around?

I'm taking a three week break from blogging just to finish four scripts I'm working on.
I am getting ready to make the final push to get the third draft script of our first project done.
I've always thought your blog was a great pitch. I wanted to work with you because of this blog.
You inspired me to return to movie making. My movie company is now owned by me. I have a series of short movies in the works. I signed my first international contract with you.
This blog changed my life and I'm sure it has touched other people's lives. The hen or the egg?
Does it really matter?
I'm grateful for your nice words about my blog.
If it matters or not? See the next blog entry for a reply. It became too long to write here.
