Writing is a circular path. Imagine, spin and write, repeat.
Imagining what the world, or people or creatures might be like in fantastical situations, then wondering what the implications of the twists I impose (the spin) and then the writing of those scenarios.
Can I create a place where equality is valued above all other ethical constructs? What are the implications of creating such a place? How would it work? Then I get down to business and write about it. Sometimes it's a dead end. Sometimes one idea spawns dozens of others.
