When the Characters Write Themselves

I never start with a plan. I just start writing. At first, it feels like guessing. One line, then another. Then suddenly, the voice changes. The character starts talking. That’s when I know I’m in. I stop thinking and start listening. The story shifts. The words come faster.

The best part of writing are those moments when the characters write themselves. It feels authentic..alive. I just follow where they lead. Sometimes it’s shocking and other times hilarious. I love it.
