When creative partners lose confidence in their collaborative humor

My writing partner and I used to bounce ideas off each other with this great improvisational energy where we'd build on each other's jokes and create really funny dialogue together. But after our last project got rejected we've both become so self-conscious about whether our humor is 'good enough' that our collaborative sessions feel forced and anxious instead of fun.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

External judgment has contaminated the creative partnership's internal sense of what's funny, paralyzing their natural collaborative flow.
