Trust Your Process

I’m always interested in how other people write. A highly successful mystery writer said he wrote five pages a day, five days a week. Another prolific writer explained his second draft was to fix little things while he mentally prepared himself to make major revisions.

Usually, when I’m writing a first draft, I review and revise the previous day’s work before I add to it. This nets about two pages of new writing each day. For my current WIP, I changed my process. I’m charging ahead with the story and not looking back – yet.

What’s your process?
