Recently Iām realizing that I need a lot of time to just thing for myself. If Iām not careful I just read a bunch of stuff, and then I just regurgitate it as if itās my viewpoint. And honestly thatās fine, if thatās your thing. But I honestly am more interested in perspectives but Iāve been thought through and kneaded like a dough over and over. I think we live in an age where everyone wants everything in an instant, and opinions of others are wanted constantly. But screw that, take your time and knead your dough is what I say. Donāt let others tell you otherwise. Your dough is precious - you donāt have to let others think for you all the time.

The beat poets had this idea of āfirst thought, best thoughtā and it sounds good but after consideration decided itās not for me. My first thought is often just what Iāve heard elsewhere ā itās someone elseās thought. But if I take the time look at something from different angles I can get past that initial reaction and figure out if I agree with it or have a different take

And I close my argument with this, a quote by screenwriting instructor Robert McKee (from a now dead link): "As writers it is our responsibility, McKee intones, to never be satisfied with the first idea that pops into our head. We must always be looking beyond our initial instincts (which are inevitably clichƩd) to find new methods of sharing information, new traits that can make a character more human, new ways of giving the audience exactly what they want in a way they would never expect."
