I Won't Read A Book

I Don't Have Any Of The Modern Stuff. I Don't Have E-mail. I Don't Have A Computer!

I Used To Be Able To Write Five Pages A Day, Every Day, No Problem. Now A Good Day Is Five Or Four Pages, And That's From 9:30 A.m. Until 6 P.m.

If You Take A Few Days To Write An Outline, You're Just Making Up Scenes That You Think Will Work, That You Think Will Be Interesting. But As You Write It, Other Ideas Occur - Better Ideas That Have To Do With What You're Writing.

My Characters Have To Talk, Or They're Out. They Audition In Early Scenes. If They Can't Talk, They're Given Less To Do, Or Thrown Out.

It's My Attempt To Remain Invisible, Not Distract The Reader From The Story With Obvious Writing.
