I like the story writing process. I usually use someone who has been trained for structure to take the story that I actually want, place those elements in the right places.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Like most writers, I just create because I have a story to tell, really.
I really enjoy the writing process because I can do it from my house. I can create these characters and take them in the different directions that I want to take them. You have a lot of freedom as a writer.
I write and write and write, and then I edit it down to the parts that I think are amusing, or that help the storyline, or I'll write a notebook full of ideas of anecdotes or story points, and then I'll try and arrange them in a way that they would tell a semi-cohesive story.
My style of writing is to allow the story to unfold on its own. I try not to structure my work too rigidly.
In general, when I'm writing, I concentrate on the story itself, and I leave it to other people, such as agents and publishers, to work out who it's for.
I care about narrative structure; I care about how stories unfold.
I enjoy writing. I enjoy that kind of process.
I have stories that I'd like to maybe one day consider directing, but you need a lot of time to write and put it together.
I write and draw from the gut. I often don't know what my stories are about until they're done.
Writing is a process of discovering. I could never outline a narrative; that just sounds boring. There's no joy of discovery in what you're doing if that's your strategy.
