Ira Glass on the creative process

I discovered this at Careann's Musings blog. Careann is Carol J. Garvin, a writer of fiction and nonfiction.

The video is from Getoutthebox1 at YouTube. Wikipedia says that Ira Glass is a radio personality.  

The presentation itself drives me crazy.  It gives me motion sickness. (I wish the makers of Prezi and/or similar tools would catch on to this problem.) But the content is right on:

• His point is that we start writing because we have enough talent/insight to know what is good. Problem: Because we have enough talent/insight to know what is good, we aren't easily satisfied with our work - which is probably good in the long run because it makes us perfecting it.

• Like any endeavor, writing takes practice. Don't quit.
