When I'm really in the zone with my writing my brain works on the project at all times. The best evidence of this is when I've fallen asleep and I awake with an idea.
That's been happening lately. And while I bitch about having to write so much to keep up with this ever changing industry - program closures, staff leaving and ending up elsewhere - new programs starting - the truth is I live for those moments because it means I've reached a certain plateau in my writing and the view is pretty good from there.
I'm slogging through the editing of draft one of the current book, and it's been feeling sloggish. So the other day I made an announcement.
"The next thing I write is going to be a whole lot easier to edit. It's going to be an autobiography."
I mean people are crazy for autobiographies, right?
