I start out very simply, writing the plot out in 10-15 bullet points. And then I fill those out onto record cards, and fill in the gaps, slowly expanding, still in note form, until the whole thing is there and makes sense. Only then do I start writing the actual words that readers will read. Even then, I try not to be too precious on the first draft. It's much easier to edit something that exists... If at the writing stage I find a scene or a plot point that is really sticking for me, then I know something about it isn't working, and I go back to the record cards. It means that there is never the pressure of the blank document staring back at you.(less)

If you can get to the stage where you are earning enough to live on, then the freedom to come and go as you please without having to hold down another job is a true luxury.(less)
