To you who always give up after writing only the first part.
What is the difference between a good writer and a great writer?
I think this is a completely subjective question. I think it's not very good because many people in history are considered “good”. They seem, fortunately “to survive the test of time”.
Many writers are considered “great” today, but I don't need to read what they wrote.
Conversely, I read a lot of things I thought were great, but it quickly became obscured with a career as a writer without catching the mainstream public eye.
In my opinion, being a "good" writer has nothing to do with "popular" or nothing at all.
Still, I have a few measuring sticks to think about this, and they all relate to my personal interpretation of the story I've read.
Writers that I think are great can fascinate me in my stories, even in nonfiction. They can sometimes be interested in what they are writing, even if I am not interested in the subject. They can make me think about things I've never thought about, and they can make me rethink my beliefs for a long time (and maybe change my opinion). They can tell stories that resonate with me, even if not forever.
The best writers have a lot in common, such as the ability to communicate ideas and stories concisely and in an easy to understand way, but I believe in ideas about who a great writer is and who isn't really a reader.
Advice for young writers
Advice for young comedy writers Don't eat lunch full. Bad things happen when you sit in the director's chair with your own name. The feeling of a good idea is good. It is kind of a soft feeling. Be suspicious of ideas that are really, really, really exciting. It can be a pole and a pole. When you talk to others about your ideas, never stand up and do it, you'll definitely talk and get excited. There's no room for this, some pants bring more luck than others. The comedy written at 3 a.m. isn't as funny as you might think. At 3pm, a drunk comedy isn't as funny as you might think. At 3 pm, the comedy I wrote when I was well-rested, eat well, and was confused may be funny. Maybe not.
If you want some certainty in the job, start accounting. Just because your show is ruined doesn't mean you're a bad guy. It just feels like that. Grow with the orthodontic device in your mouth so that you don't grind your teeth out of anger when you sleep. It doesn't mean that your soul is dragged away when the audience doesn't laugh at your comedy. It just feels that way.
With that in mind, don't be fooled by a laugh that simply laughs out of compassion. You may or may not love you, but it's not a good measure of your talent. With that in mind, if your mom really loves you, you probably aren't that good comedy writer.
Never give up
Never see someone else read your writing. Rather, take a bath and circulate blood at times like this. Put strange words at the end of the sentence. But sometimes don't. Again, uncertainty is your god. Anyone who uses poisonous words about your work has spent precious time in their lives thinking about you. And that precious time will never come back in their lives. Let it be your comfort. And finally, every moment, needless to say, every time your anger is in fact just what your fears pretend to be. The only reason you're angry is that you can't stand your fears. This is why you have a chair that brings you bad luck and pants that bring good luck.
This advice is from the great Chuck Laurie who created <Two Men and 1/2> and <The Big Bang Theory>.
