As big a planner as I am, it's hard for me to get into #writing short fiction because the pre-writign is almost as extensive as it is for my longer-form works.

I think I'm going to do more extemporaneous writing on a regular basis. Maybe on Twitch, maybe as a Patreon perk.

Maybe I'll attach some of my insights/thoughts/process to it as well, a sort of linear notes/commentary. If you care enough about my writing to support me on patreon, you care enough to hear me blather on about process.

@mcoorlim There's this process poets use called CBS - short for Chinese Brush stroke, in which you don't stop to revise, just write freely without stopping, just as a Chinese master of painting would not lift their brush for the canvas until finished. Helps to free up the creative process, which is at it's heart intuitive. Works for prose as well. Give it a try.

@mcoorlim If I'm telling you about stuff you already know then just ignore. Thx.

@StevenDBT I appreciate the input. CBS sounds familiar, but it never hurts to be reminded of things like that.
