"On Kerouac, On the Road, and On the Writing Process," is a new post up on my website.
The thing I loved about the first draft was that it was concise, easy to follow, atmospheric, and a bit airy.

Dearhearts β what's your favorite stage of a project, and why? π
Friends, I did the FAFO Podcast earlier this week, and the episode dropped late yesterday. Was a great interview, running about 35 minutes. Talked #CollegeSwimming, #ArmyWestPoint, #CollegeFootball, #Writing & the #WritingProcess.
It means draft two reads cleaner than most second drafts. It also means I never skip a scene without sitting in it first. π
Dearhearts β do you edit as you go or save it all for later? I'm always curious how different writers handle this. π
"People never understood that writers did not really want to write; they wanted to have written--a sentiment misattributed to a dozen famous authors throughout history, none of whom actually wrote that, but no doubt felt it." ~ Matthew Pearl

My writing process depends on what Iβm writing. Science fiction starts with research which I thoroughly enjoy. Nigerian/African speculative fiction, though, comes fully formed, like an ancestral dream which I must urgently translate to words before it is taken away. #writingprocess
Author Insight: My Writing System β Why I Stopped Using Notebooks
Many writers swear by notebooks. I tried them too.
But it didn't work for me.
So notebooks went out.
No folders. No notebooks.
So what next?
My bundles of paper...
