My writing process:
- Write a sentence
- Delete most of that sentence
- Rewrite sentence to make it sound better
- Look up a synonym for a word because I’ve only just used it
- Wonder exactly what a particular plot point/job/location/object entails/looks like
- Click away from Word to Google said plot point
- Click on Tumblr while waiting for page to load
- Spend half an hour scrolling through cute/amusing posts and videos
- Remember I’m supposed to be writing
- Curse
- Click back to Word to remind myself what I was going to Google
- Research by going through several pages of articles
- Click on an unrelated article because it looks interesting
- Spend half an hour going through other unrelated articles
- Curse
- Go back to Word
- Add absolutely nothing to the plot point/job/location/object but comfort myself with the knowledge that, if someone asks, I know exactly what that fucker is.
- Write a sentence
- Delete most of that sentence…
