Writer's Block

Writer's Block Doesn't Bring in the Greene

 

Noted author and Seattle Bears center Scott Greene recently spoke on the subject of his next book, and his writing process. The author of “On Ice Down Under: A History of Australian Hockey”, and the co-writer of a remake of the classic movie “Twins” starring Hulk Hogan and Danny DeYeeto, Greene has yet to put out any new content recently. His many fans are excited for his next project, of which there could be many.

 

“I thought about writing a children’s book, a sci-fi novel, a western, and many other things. I even thought about writing a graphic novel starring my good friends on the Seattle Bears as a superhero squad. But I just can’t get any momentum going at the moment,” says Greene. “The summer was mostly spent partying by us, and then it was right back onto the rink to play again, which I love. I just haven’t had a ton of time to pursue my other passions. My girlfriend even gets mad at me because I practice my slap shot in my sleep.”

 

Writing isn’t the easiest thing, especially for an author like Greene. For months, he has been penning articles for various hockey sites in addition to his other writing and creative pursuits. “Usually my analysis articles take up most of my writing time,” says Greene. “Each one has to be at least 500 words and all of them have to be completely unique from one another. It can be really difficult to come up with new ideas for articles each week, and even harder to find the motivation to do so as time goes by.” 

 

Greene actually says that there’s even more of a reason for him to do it. “I seem to  become a better player overall when I write more about the sport. It’s odd. Maybe it’s me paying attention to the techniques of others or learning new strategies, but I definitely improve the more attention that I pay towards the rest of the league.”

 

Greene has gone so far as to recommend that other players do the same thing. “I think many younger players would definitely improve their understanding of the game if they just wrote more about the league overall. Not that we have an actual lack of talent in the league at the moment, but it’s always nice to be able to see people improving, especially the younger players.” 

 

Several other writers have endorsed the writing process as a means for improvement. Scott’s teammate and Seattle Bears forward John Frostbeard has been using this technique for about just as long as Greene. Frostbeard is one of the star players of the Bears, so this strategy clearly works. 

 

Greene, in the meantime, would like to focus on less serious matters. “I need time to work on my Hulk Hogan/HHH fanfiction. It’s been requested by many of my biggest fans, and while the subject doesn’t interest me at all, I gotta go where the money goes. That’s just good business, ya know?”
