A Question for Writers
Mar. 5th, 2009 10:25 amI'm interested in opinions.
Is it better to not write at all, or is it better to write something, anything, even if you realize that you do not have a clear idea of your story's goal and haven't yet done all the background work?
I decided to pause in the writing of Archon of Gloucester because I felt I needed to do more background work and thinking before I continued writihng. It has paid off. I got an excellent idea today for the threats posed by the villain.
