In my unprofessional opinion as a creator if you want to have not just a hobby but decent job you only need to write for the market. Overwise if you do it just for yourself there is no guarantee other people would like your work = you have no value for market = you won't be able to earn money. The question is how to write for market AND be excited/thrilled about your work? To achieve such state creator needs to have good knowledge of mainstream media, what people like and don't, in what they are interested in, what they used to see in other shows/movies/series etc. With such knowledge creator can combine his own unique ideas he is thrilled about with existing trends on market, so in the end everybody is happy

I think I’m missing something here. Is she suggesting that we look inside ourselves to develop characters? I certainly don’t want every character in my story to be like me. Or is she suggesting that the story that you are writing is a story that is affecting your life at this moment?
Have you been tempted to write for the market?

no, I write what I want to write. The story I have in my heart.
Vicki ‘King’s book on how to write a screenplay in 21 days inspired me.
Excellent and inspiring advice; she really spoke to me. Thank you. ❤
Interesting perspective on not being a team player!
Not sure that is something most people would admit.
Wow.. Yesterday i thought about reading her book again..this is cool
Great Interview☝🏻

Wow. Amazing woman.
If I know I can write my story…would it be better to try to pitch it first to a professional?
