Writing’s easy, they said. Just put the words down, don’t worry about form, it’s just a draft, they said…well, writing IS easy. I mean this bio, for instance, was written in five minutes including the toilet break.
Yes, writing’s easy for me. As long as there are no characters involved. Once you create characters they start making requests. They start waking you up at night with ideas. They start having dialogues with other characters while you’re trying to have a shower.
You’ve never really felt the pain of writing until you’ve witnessed a shouting argument between six angry characters inside your own head. Editing also sucks because then your characters start arguing with you for cutting their scenes out.
So, yeah. I write. Buy my books.
