I used to try to write around the edges, but now I try to walk a more direct line.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I used to sit on the Circle Line and go 'round and 'round and write.
I do tend to take lines from other lines I like, and then write around them.
When I'm writing, sometimes it gets to that place where I feel like the piece is writing itself and I'm trying not to get in the way.
I've always tried to walk a line between being incisive and acerbic, but not mean. Sometimes I'm going to tip over the line a little bit, but that's usually a line I try not to cross.
Outlining is like putting on training wheels. It gives me the courage to write, but we always go off the outline.
A drawing is simply a line going for a walk.
If you get stuck, draw with a different pen. Change your tools; it may free your thinking.
I can't draw a straight line to save my life. I just can't draw.
I don't work in a straight line. I don't write with an outline. I write where I can see things happen, and then things get glued together.
I have a notebook with me all the time, and I begin scribbling a few words. When things are going well, the walk does not get anywhere; I finally just stop and write.
