Then, in the next few days, a character will pop into my brain and introduce himself. My job is to write down his story as fast as I can. I'm always surprised by the outcome, but everything works out in the end and every stupid little detail ends up meaning something.<br /><br />The trick is, I can't take more than a few days off. If I do, the guy leaves and it's hell to get him back. Absolute hell. Kind of like if you left a friend hanging on the phone for days…they wouldn't be too happy, would they?<br /><br />That's naked writing for me. Although, never literally naked. That may change when I live on an island where it's always humid and hot, though. :)J.H.

Many techniques work for some but the same ones don't work for others. I don't think anyone is saying it's wrong, or at least not here. I do it, and I don't feel bad about it. Even if I get into the zone of free writing I still edit while I go by reading over paragraphs. It is how I write and I'm not changing it. :)Chrys Feyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955009490266358041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-16716458176129925562014-04-16T19:18:07.703-04:002014-04-16T19:18:07.703-04:00Sometimes I search for the perfect word too, and i...Sometimes I search for the perfect word too, and it can take several minutes.<br /><br />lol I also do that . . . perch a notebook on the rim of my bathtub. :PChrys Feyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955009490266358041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-53685077521015700802014-04-16T19:16:08.908-04:002014-04-16T19:16:08.908-04:00No, you're definitely not the only one.
