I'm a WHAT IF person. I can "what if" almost any subject to death. And that's how I write. What if, what if, what if -- then what? It's almost like writing for-next loops or if-then loops in BASIC programming. And the best part is that whatever I come up with, the end result* of that is always changing during the writing process. Because I ask "what if" all the way through. "What if instead of x, y happens?" "And if y happens, how does that affect z?" And so forth. Writing is very organic and fluid for me. Always an adventure.
