Writing, for me, is an inherent part of understanding the material on a deeper level.
I, personally, have found reading a continual support to writing.
Neophyte writers tend to believe that there is something magical about ideas and that if they can just get a hold of a good one, then their futures are ensured.
I read what I write over and over and make corrections and improvements, until I reach the conclusion that the material deserves to stand on its own.
Mythologies become exhausting burdens, from a writer's perspective.
Everything that you read is an influence on everything you write, and you want to draw as many elements into your work as you can.
Writing is sometimes a balancing act between keeping things easily readable and being accurate.
I have to feel what I'm writing, right down to the core.
I'm not too fond of the hard work and the constant battle with self-doubt that goes on when I write, but I figure that's part of the territory.
The great thing about writing is that it has to work without that invisible layer of the reader's added knowledge.
