How I begin- its called the plunge – in technique.
1. When you are woken by an amazing idea early in the morning that demands that you sneak out of your warm bed into the dark, cold house, and scribble till dawn-.just write write and write- that’s the new book/story calling its mummy.
2..ASAP-in daylight- read the pages, ignore the typos-feel the glow in your belly-Eureka! This is how IT begins.
3.Exert all your strength to avoid fiddling with your 3am inspiration-let’s call it the nucleus.
4.Close eyes tightly- call on the Muse- flex your eager fingers-and write the next exciting bit.
There’s more- watch this space-
