🚩 I have never published an actual story, nor have I ever worked with anyone who has.

When I think about writing, professionally, I assume that writing for work, is easier. A report gets written or sections of a newspaper. Independent stories. Cleanly cut.

How is creativity churned despite setbacks like time and burn-out?

Can the effective practices and principles from software development be applied to creative writing?

Should there be an overlap?

One of the best ways to find out — trial and error.
