Research is both the ultimate procrastination tool, and the holy grail for making your characters and your worlds feel lived in and three-dimensional. So how much is enough? And what does meaningful research even look like anyway? Are we writing endless bulletpoints, watching stacks of movies, making stupid collages, or just cramming it into our brains in the hope that it'll all just sort of work itself into the script in the end?
It's safe to say we all have our different methods, so please do let us know what works for you (you never know, it might be the missing piece of the puzzle for someone else!), and if you are finding yourself getting lost down endless research rabbitholes - we've got you covered with some top tips on how to avoid it too.
