Description: DESCRIBING BROKEN GLASS by Author R. L. HERRON
Which is probably why so many of the writers I talk to seem preoccupied with time-management.
Many authors need to put blinders on, finding ways to simplify their experience and reduce the number of potential distractions. That might mean consistently keeping a single two-hour window sacred to ward off imagination derailment.
Ultimately, the literary exercise is about finding ways to defend something fragile—the quiet mood in which the imagination flourishes. You need to make sure you have a private self. Because the private self is where your writing comes from.
