Everyone asks me how I got started into writing. I wish I had some cool story to tell, but the truth is pretty lame. My wife and I were having a drink on our back porch and I mentioned a concept I’d been mulling over. She suggested that I write it down, and so I figured I’d make a few notes and get it out of my system. No matter how I tried though, it just wouldn’t let me write it in any other way than a story. Believe me when I say I tried, but 63,000 words later I realized that I needed a chart to track the plot and personas to maintain character consistency. So I just gave up and let it write itself from that point on. As far as I’m concerned at this point, I’m just hanging on and trying to keep up.
