Joss Whedon, the creator of Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and, of course, the silly and wonderful Dr. Horrible, offers some writing tips.
For example...
1. FINISH IT
Actually finishing it is what I’m gonna put in as step one. You may laugh at this, but it’s true. I have so many friends who have written two-thirds of a screenplay, and then re-written it for about three years. Finishing a screenplay is first of all truly difficult, and secondly really liberating. Even if it’s not perfect, even if you know you’re gonna have to go back into it, type to the end. You have to have a little closure.
