S6E102: Episode 102: Brock Swinson: Creativity by the Barrel

from The Common Creative · host Paul Fairweather and Chris Meredith

“Never pick an argument with someone who buys ink by the barrel”.   Brock Swinson is a filmmaker, screenwriter, interviewer for Creative Screenwriting Magazine and presenter of Creative Principles Podcast.   His new book “Ink by the Barrel - secrets of Prolific Writers” references a quote by William Greener, which suggests that the key to great creativity lies in delivering work in volume rather than waiting to craft the perfect piece.  (For example, Brock references movie director Bong Joon-Ho, who directed ten unsuccessful movies about class struggle before finally breaking through with his Oscar-winning masterpiece “Parasite”) Having conducted interviews with over 400 writers, Brock unveils some of the best-kept secrets not only for creative writing but also fueling any creative process. Tune in for a conversation that delves into powerful ideas for creativity with the insightful Brock Swinson.
