Many screenwriters attempt to write a work of substance - full of meaning. They want to be original and intelligent and inventive.

As soon as they attempt this, they shut down.

One of the primary creativity blocks is evaluation apprehension: people are so worried about creating original and intelligent content that they self edit themselves to redundancy [and create limited output].

If the writers of Red Riding Hood had known the number of times their work would be interpreted and analysed for meaning, they may never have written it.

A good way to be original is to be obvious.

A good way to allow fluid creative output is to ignore content.

In other words, separate creative from critical thinking.
