@Austinkleaon offers up a few pratical points on how to Steal like a Writer!
 

  1. Writing is Collage.
  2. Carry a Notebook and Pen
  3. Read, Read, Read.
  4. Keep a Swipe File.
  5. Don’t wait until you know what you think to get started.
  6. Step Away from the screen.
  7. Keep a Daily Routine.
  8. Write something you would want to read.
  9. Tell (Oprah) Stories.
  10. Practice in Public.
So many of these are direct cross overs to shooting a script and filmmaking. My favorite is number 8 because it is the most basic self-evaluation. If you wouldn’t want to read it (or watch it for that matter!) why should anyone else??
