I'm the kind of writer who has to get something down on the table first. I have to start from scratch, as if I were attempting to make homemade buscuits. I throw words and awful descriptions and characterizations out on the cooking pan, trying to figure out where to go from here. (Because I'm no good cook.) When it's all said and done, I read back through the writing. Sprinkling some pepper here, spraying some I Can't Believe It's Not Butter there. Then I fall back against the chair, wipe scraggly strands of hair from my face, overlooking my dirty work. It'll need help after I'm done with it. I always start off writing my worst first. I tend to use the KISS acronym. Keep It Simple Stupid. Then I go back in and add the human senses, more adjectives, information on the past and present, the general flow and syntax of the story. After that, I hope to God that's one fluffy buscuit.
