Procrastination, pour procrastiner utile sur son écritureS06e12 - Ne pas écrireOn parle beaucoup d'écrire, mais quasiment jamais des pauses et des respirations : dans cet épisode, plongée dans la jachère de la création, à l'opposé des impératifs de production.
Mélanie expose l'existence de cette pression d'occuper l'espace dans les métiers artistiques, qui est difficilement compatible avec le travail de l'inconscient sur la durée. Surtout que la créativité peut évoluer, comme dans son cas, entre les genres et même les formes. Lionel propose un parallèle avec son travail en musique, où le mûrissement permet de rendre les sessions de travail finalement plus efficaces, à m...
