What is the hardest part about writing? On the contrary, what is the easiest part?
Jessica Titone
The hardest part of writing for me is maintaining focus. I have a natural inclination to not sit still. Add to that any number of distractions, and you have a mess. Focus seems to be an especially hard thing to achieve when editing. All the words - even simple ones - fly away and hang in the periphery, taunting me just far enough out of reach.
The easiest part is dialogue. It's always the piece that comes first when I'm writing a scene. The same goes for any internal monologues or thoughts in the character's head. A major element in Stolen came about because I was enamored with the video game Hellblade. The protagonist hears voices, and I thought it would be interesting to create a character that constantly dialogues with herself.
