Ep 046 Rambling Writer
In his book, The Anatomy of Story, in the section on Story Movement, John Truby, talks about the Meandering Story. ‘The meandering story follows a winding path without apparent direction…’
Indeed.
This episode is something like that. It meanders along with nary a hint of purpose.
Topics I wander through:
What makes me a buy a book
Why I don’t read blurbs
An accidental ‘review’ of T J Klune’s, The House in the Cerulean Sea
How Klune’s book helped my tackle my own WIP
The need to slow down (and speed up) when writing middle grade fiction.
How I used a screenplay format to get my story started, get a bird’s eye view of events and find a confident (although superficial) launching place
Other rambly stuff that might be of interest to other creatives
Take from it what you will, dear author.
