Taken me a couple of weeks to listen, but very useful post. I’ve done a few courses at Curtis Brown Creative, including the 3-month one. I do recommend them as they got me writing again. Also, writing what you know. I had an idea some time ago, but told my friend I didn’t have the life experience. She pointed out that George Lucas has never travelled through an asteroid belt in a spaceship, but his characters have. Just write what you want and research later.
