Writing Methods September 18, 2008

How many different writing methods are out there? I’ve covered many of them in this blog over it’s lifetime. There are so many different ways to organize and write a book, that it’s easy to become overwhelmed. Especially if you’re like me and you know about all of these different processes. Weeding through them can be somewhat of a pain. I’d advise trying different things and figuring out what works for you and ditch what’s not working.
I posted a few days ago about my quest for motivational help. Instead of looking to someone else to find this motivation, I’ve decided to come up with my own plan to write and stay motivated.
The first thing that I did was take a blank notebook and do a brain dump of every writing process/aid/method that I’ve learned over the years. I was surprised at how long the list turned out to be. I then went through each of these and decided on the few that I thought worked best for me.
Over the next few days, I will describe some of the processes that I decided to use, and which are working best for me.
Interesting. I look forward to seeing all the methods.
I’m kind of adapting older methods to new situations. At the moment, I’m kind of doing a combination of brainstorming and rambling as well as some sort of controlled outline.
sometimes i like to write down my dreams… or just start writing whatever is in my head at any point in time (that’s sometimes interesting).
glad to see ya blogging!!
Yes, I’m still blogging not as consistantly as I was before but every so offten. Its a litte harder to do so with working and being a full time student but I try to come back to it every so offten. Life has so many things to write about and look over in a curious state I just couldn’t give up writting for good.
Take care
