*type type type*

It's Friday! Time for the weekend, some time off, and a Star Wars movie marathon. Sounds like fun, doesn't it?
You know what else sounds fun?

Answering this misconception, and finding out what fun surprise I have in store for you!


Writers are... Always Writing



It's both true and false at the same time. I know, that doesn't make much sense. I'll explain, just keep reading. Don't fret.

See, writers are always writing in that in everything we see, we see story. When I watch people walking down the street, or I listen to people talking in a restaurant, I see their story. I imagine them as characters, as people in a story. Maybe that sounds harsh and like I don't care about people, but it's really quite the opposite. Seeing them as characters makes them mean more to me, and it helps me better understand them, because I understand my characters so well. That's beside the point.

So we're always writing, in that we constantly see stories and that we tend to think of the world in terms of story and we craft our words with more precision than the average person.

But.

We're not always actually writing.

Very frequently, in fact, many writers don't write. Many find it fruitful to take a break, to step back and work on some other art craft. Others take time off writing to edit (which, incidentally, is not always what I do). But because of that, we're not always physically writing, not constantly working on novels or short stories that we intend to someday publish.

But that doesn't mean we're not always writing.

You see what I mean?

We're writers, so it's what we do, but it's not always what we're doing.

Yeah, that might have gotten confusing.
