Today’s Inspirational Video
Of course, the Zero Draft Thirty community has our very own inspirational critter: Scamper the Hamster.
Today we welcome another inspirational critter: Motivational Lizard.
Today’s Loos Award winner: Wendy Young.
Over at the Zero Draft Thirty Facebook group, Wendy posted this quote from Aaron Sorkin:
“Getting that feeling, that idea, from your head to the page to the screen is like trying to walk from here to there with water in your hands. By the time you get to there, there’s not going to be much water left. But every once in a while, if you collaborate with great people, not only do you get from here to there with a lot of that water left, it turns into champagne…”
That’s what the Zero Draft Thirty community is: Great people.
Here is the link to the entire Aaron Sorkin interview.
For that inspiration, today’s Anita Loos Award goes to Wendy Young!

Why not join the Zero Draft Thirty Facebook group? It’s a terrific community and during this month’s challenge, we are hosting a Zoom Room where you can enter and join others for writing scampers. Video on. Microphone off. It’s like you’re in a virtual café. With no coffee. No music. No noise.
Okay, so it’s not like you’re in a café. But you are in a virtual room with other writers from all around the world. Keeps you working, I’ll tell you that!
Onward!
