Sally Forth  Taking a shower helps, I find. Also, while I've never written a full novel before, I imagine having a bare idea of what you want the plot to be about and who the characters are would be useful.

I am currently Hard at Work Comix. Pooch Café  Nice try. Cats don't care about creation, they live only to destroy. Ballard Street  The gently caress it isn't. I was at Lowes the other day and they had a whole aisle of hinges installed on little tiny doors you could open and close and I stayed there for hours. The Creeps  Tumor creep is such a tragic figure.

I am too, about everything including spontaneous baking/cooking projects. You'll find out what I'm doing when I'm done.  Sal's questions would drive me up the wall.That said, I still have the distinct impression that Hil's writing strategy was just to sit down and let the words flow with no preplanning or plot mapping ahead of time. Like she'd just write her first sentence and the whole rest of the book would just plop out of her from there.   This is a dumb way to write a novel, but it's understandable that she would go about it this way since she's a preteen.

Phantom Classic  Radio Patrol   Tomorrer.  Rip Kirby   Big Ben Bolt   I've said it before, but I think it's worth repeating that the character art in this strip is fantastic. Whereas in so many other strips (particularly modern ones, but to some degree with older ones as well) you tell people apart from their clothing and hair, everybody in Big Ben Bolt has their own identifiable face. It's refreshing. Julet Esqu fucked around with this message at 05:40 on Sep 26, 2015 |
