A blog for writers.
Helping writers master their craft, productivity, teaching artistry and digital presence.
Writing about the craft of writing; productivity and creative systems; learning and teaching as a writer; and the business and sustainability of the writing life.
Hi, my name is Iain F Macleod. I'm a Scottish writer working in theatre, film & tv, radio and as a novelist. I work internationally, and am also a teaching artist and writer mentor, and adaptor of the works of others for theatre, radio and film.
Some more detail on the main topics I like to write about:
Playwriting & Dramaturgy for writers - How writers can develop their writing craft.
Working as a Teaching Artist - the intersection of being an artist and teaching others.
Productivity for artists - Organising your writing life, developing and delivering work.
The Business of Writing - From looking after your health as a freelancer to improving SEO for your blog.
I'm also interested in mental models and approaches, which can be used in a writing context. For example, I've written some posts on using coaching techniques in the script development process here.
