In my last blog, I mentioned how Wil Wheaton talked about the Cult of Done Manifest on his G+ account about a week or so ago. In the main portion of that post, he had displayed a picture from Ira Glass and how it was his way of expressing to young and/or new writers about this strange little portion of the creative process that we all call, "The Gap." The picture itself is really creative and a great tool to use. Definitely something that I am currently holding onto and waiting to place it up in my soon to be new writing area. I recommend that you all take up the practice of also doing such things and pin up the Cult of Done Manifesto and this picture in your respective writing areas. Put them both up in all your writing areas, heck put them up on your bathroom wall so you can also have something to read while you're visiting the porcelain throne.
I dont think there can be anything said truer than this image. So thanks to Ira Glass and his words of wisdom. I have struggled with the gap and continue to struggle with it always. A never ending war it shall be, but one I will conquer with resilience and vigor....hopefully. Either that or I'll give up and go live in a van down by the river, the former is much more preferable however.
