Lately, I’ve been juggling long hours at the hospital with my side passion for screenwriting, and I’m curious how do others in demanding fields like medicine or biotech carve out time for creative work? Between interpreting scans and drafting scripts, I often feel like I’m either neglecting one or stretching myself too thin.
For those who’ve found a rhythm, what’s your approach? Do you block out strict creative hours, or do you sneak in writing during downtime? And for the biotech folks, have any of you found parallels between scientific problem-solving and creative storytelling? Would love to hear what’s worked (or hasn’t) for others!
