This is really interesting:
Just listened to Chuck Palahniuk on Joe Rogan’s podcast the other day, and he describes this action not as writing, but “keyboarding”. For him, all the writing takes place much earlier, either in his notebook or in conversation with others. Putting it on the page, for him at least, is a necessary evil for getting the story out.
I totally get what he’s saying. But it’s not necessarily true for everything I write. Sometimes I need to write to find the point. Maybe if I walked away from the draft and let it percolate, I would find the point.
I want to listen to the podcast. Thanks for mentioning it.
