The Creative Process


How, more or less, I write magazine articles:

Pour a drink

Open MS Word

Read email from my editor about story ideas he wants me to cover

Check bulletin board devoted to Powerlifting

Tap out a couple of sentences

Look at funny videos on YouTube

Go pour another drink

Tap out some bullet points on central themes of story

Re-check bulletin board devoted to Powerlifting

Check Facebook

Check bulletin board devoted to Strongman Competition

Look at music videos from 80's on YouTube

Hit refresh on window powerlifting board is open in

Look at Word, think "Fuck!"

Check bulletin board devoted to grip and hand strength

Get angry

Go take a piss

Hit refresh on window Facebook is open in

Pour another drink

Flash of inspiration, write nine hundred words

Repeat



Believe me, it's not always this easy.
