So I've been watching this show on Netflix called The Writer's Room. Each episode concerns a different popular show (Breaking Bad, Dexter, Parks & Rec, etc.) and interviews with the writing team of each show including the main character. Lots of behind-the-scenes trivia is revealed, and we get to see an inside look at how these writers work and where they come up with their ideas.
There are very few talents that I have where I personally feel I am genuinely good at it. I can be praised over and over about a painting or playing guitar but through the praise I'm just thinking to myself: "They don't know what they're talking about. This thing stinks. It's a fluke if anything!" Sitting in a room with others tossing around ideas and coming up with a genius pot of entertainment stew is one of those areas I would love to get a taste of. I feel it's perfect for me and that I could be a substantial contributor holding my own and providing my own special ingredients.
I'm OCD which causes me to over think and over analyze everything to the point where I can annoy myself. Sitting in a writer's room where I could shine with others would certainly redeem this curse. In the meantime, I will continue to write solo (with the exception of a dash of co-authoring here and there) with the hopes of gaining at least a pinch of recognition with a hungry little reader base.
I'll let you chew on all those cooking references while I finish my lunch break.
