Yeah I’ll turn on the dictation on my phone and talk really fast at red lights! Deciphering those notes is lots of fun!

@honeygirl I do the same thing. . . the worst is when I'm driving and I can't get to a computer or hell, even a notebook until hours pass. I try to picture the words written down in my head, and sometmes that works.

@Acb6293 - SAD is the acronym for Sunnydale After Dark!
April 26, 2023 04:36pm

Niamh
And when not one of this things work, I quietly sob into my pillow. I'm kidding. I just try every day to write something. Whether it is story related or not.

@Niamh - I love all of these so much! I get ideas for scenes and dialogue when I’m walking too and then have to repeat over and over until I get home and can write it down! haha

Niamh
I work out fight scenes like I'm choreographing a stage production of various episodes (Anytime Angel fights either Buffy or Spike is gold).
April 26, 2023 04:33pm

Niamh
And yes, I do realize that's quite black humor). I go back and edit some stuff that's previously been written (some posted, some not). I picture Spike following the punk bands and getting into a drinking contest with Joey Ramone, Sid Viscious, and several other icons from the punk era.
April 26, 2023 04:32pm

Niamh
Or vice-versa. I stare at pictures of shirtless Spike. I watch Buffy taking care of Spike in S7. I go for a walk or a long drive, work out dialogue and scenes while I'm doing that. I've tried drinking (I like to call that the Dylan-Hemingway School of Writing

Niamh
Having battled writer's block for most of my life, I find that a number of things work. All those suggestions made by the others, sometimes all mashed together. If I'm using a particular episode as a springboard, I go back and watch that obsessively. I switch off sing-along music to soundtracks

@Flow, no i'm not. I'll join it. What does SAD mean? Seasonal affective disorder? what does that have to do with Spuffy lol?
