Prompt: “Amateurs sit and wait for inspiration. The rest of us just get up and go to the page and write." — Stephen King Do you sit in front of your computer waiting for inspiration? Or do you carry a notebook and go do things, jutting down notes throughout your day and then write. Share how your writing begins... we're curious. -------- Nope, I don't have the time for sitting around and waiting. I never had and never did. And I have notebooks, yes; however, I don't carry them around with me. Carrying my cellphone is enough pain as it is, but I have a notepad in my cell, with limited memory. It comes in handy, although I use it rarely. I carry my cell with me all the time, only because I promised my sons to do that. Silly guys! They worry about me. I used to write a lot more and often, but since my eyes, due to old age, are slightly failing, I don't spend too much time trying to write. That is why, lately, I only write in my blog and the monthly WdC NL. I promised myself to write into my blog, each day, just so that I don't forget how to write. ![]() As to how my writing begins, I sit at the computer, open a page, and write whatever, or bleed into the page, as they say. If I am writing about something I have little or no knowledge of, then I run a search on the internet first. Never in my life, have I waited for inspiration. Just maybe, inspiration passes me by. ![]() |
