Just back from a dreamy writing day in the middle of nowhere 😍 Nothing beats nature for creative inspiration 🎭✍️

I've spent far too long today collating all the most useful ways to find me here... www.lisa-carroll.co.uk/links For all your workshop, script reading, body doubling needs & more!

Whatever you repeat you get good at. Whatever you practice you get good at. Just by showing up. It's the law of doing things! Doesn't even matter the quality of the practice or bad days. Just keep dragging your ass to the page 😆 You can't *not* get better 💫 #Creativity #Playwriting

With playwriting, everything comes back to FLOW 1/ While writing, losing yourself in the scene 2/ Actors utterly embodying your characters 3/ The collective dream-state you're weaving the audience into What is flow? Timelessness, boundlessness, impulse, essence, presence 💫 #creativity #playwriting

Are you writing to express or to impress?

Playwriting is not an intellectual exercise, it is an emotional one. A sensual one. An embodied one. I will die on this hill.

Some of the best, most enduring writing advice I've ever received is to make your play UNDENIABLE. Not good, not bad, not well-written, not to everyone's taste necessarily, just impossible to deny in the strength of it's cry in the dark. #Writing #Playwriting #Theatre

Don't "toughen up" I had a conversation with an artist recently, a very sensitive soul, who said she was trying to "toughen up" to keep pursuing her art While this is supposedly received wisdom, part of me balked Our job is to be sensitive. To stay alive & aware. Soft. Keep the channel open!

With Brighton Fringe running for a month (but shows seeming to have short runs) does anyone whose been before or lives there know is there an ideal time to go down for a few days? @brightonfringe.bsky.social

Super looking forward to leading the first in-person SOLO SHOWS workshop since the pandemic tonight with angel Milly Thomas at SCRUM theatre's HQ A workshop based on the book based on the workshop www.nickhernbooks.co.uk/making-your-...

In the final leg of the year I'm struggling with a lot of resistance to my to-do list, writing, applications, all of it really. Part of it is - I definitely just need a good old rest at this point. But part of it is emotional. The baggage of rejections past that tries to get me to avoid...

Blue-sky-ers! On Mondays I host a Zoom for playwrights/screenwriters/creatives called Never Miss A Monday which is for quiet working but in lovely company! Do join us tomorrow 7-8.30pm bit.ly/4cXvcIG

I'm currently re-reading David Edgar's 'How Plays Work' and getting so much from it, highly recommend 🤩

Already a fan of bluesky for immediately showing me numerous pics of the Moon. What a thing it is to be seen, to be known.
