He's had my genitalia on a block of ice in his fridge for the last 5 years, so I haven't really got much of a choice.

It's one of The Flumps.
I've never considered writing with a partner before. Probably because I'm completely upminster. I should probably find a passing masochist and try it.

It's Pootle Flump.

I have a writer who is, for the large part, not lazy. But there are a few golden rules to getting his best:
1. Don't distract him with shiny things
2. If producing/filming what he's writing don't talk to him about frame rates, lighting, or ANY aspect of filming the script. It'll make him rethink that well-though-out scene with manic Bolivian girls (I really wish I was joking about this premise, but I'm not).
3. Although it's been said before, the sagely advice of the hour is to set a deadline. (Also imposing some arbitrary punishment for letting the aforementioned deadline to pass is both motivational and fun.)
