Sometimes I put music on, or I'll put ID on in the background (subliminal murder talk, I guess, haha), but I'm easily distracted by shiny things, so more often than not, I just try to find the one place in the house that's quiet.

I usually start with those, writing scenes that help me create or capture the feel of both. Then I go back and weave the plot through them, adding more to the characters and the sense of dread as things develop. I try to keep to a writing schedule nowadays, 1-3k words a day or more, if possible, and I find that it helps me focus without it feeling overwhelming or too much like a task. :)Mary SanGiovannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15359895959240783312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7991050411828355350.post-72334474307968437352016-09-20T00:54:01.817-07:002016-09-20T00:54:01.817-07:00A question for both of you, of course!
