Writer’s write. I say that often. It is a simple mantra I repeat over and over again. I do this because it is true, it is necessary. If a writer does not write then what is he?

There is no simple formula to writing. I do not believe any two writers truly go about it exactly the same. That being said there are boundless volumes devoted to the art of writing. My personal favorite has always been On Writing by Stephen King; it still remains my go to book on the craft.

Once I asked writing friends of mine on Twitter how they wrote. I was trying to raise the level of discussion. More importantly I was trying to see if there was something different I could do to refine my own process. One of those friends simply said that this was a discussion far too big for 140 characters. He was right.
