Big Peace December Day 22
Recently, on my journey to do more of what I really want to do
(following my own flow) I've started to be more creative and am
attempting to write a little bit of fiction.
I was inspired by a screenwriting course I attended in Cornwall led
by Hollywood Guru Blake Snyder, author of Save the Cat!: The Only
Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need:
I just wanted to share this post on Blake's blog: It's about
transformation:
"All stories are about transformation," writes Blake.
All stories are the caterpillar turning into a butterfly in some
sense. All stories require a death and rebirth to make that painful
and glorious process happen.
And it occurs in movies... and in life.
We transform every day, re-awaken to new concepts about the world
around us, overcome conflict, and triumph over death... only to start
again each morning.
It's why stories that follow this pattern resonate.
Because each day is a transformation machine and so are our lives."
Here's an exercise to get your creative juices flowing today;
Write the story you want to create today. What new concepts do you want to re-awaken?
What conflict will you overcome (and how?)
How will you triumph over 'death' - (I'd prefer it if you did that
metaphorically....! death of an idea???? death of a belief system?)
How will you choose to transform your life today?
