Hello, I have a writing question. Imagine you have an idea for a fic and thought about the plot, you have an idea what will happen, who the ppl are, etc. When you go about your day (so NOT when you're sitting in front of your laptop/phone to work on it) do you "write" the story in your head? Bc I do, I think about the sentence structure, how I will phrase things, and if I don't like it I "edit" that in my head, change words or the word order. I'm sorry if I phrased that weirdly and it's hard to understand. My question is basically if you form proper sentences in your head when you're not writing in that moment. I was talking to a writer friend and she doesn't do that. Now I'm curious how common/uncommon that is, so I will send this question to a few writers I follow but I'm genuinely interested in every single ones writing and thought process so I would appreciate it if you could answer. Thank you! 🩵
hi omg! i think of scenes and what i want to write. like a storyline goes in my mind and i think of what they will be saying and in what part that lines would be used. I usually think if it would go together and also visually imagine what the scene might look like. i dont edit it in the head HAHAHA but because i have kind of a bad memory thing, if i think of something really fun i write in my whatsapp personal chat in bullet points that i know will remind me of it aksjsks. and most ideas only come when we can’t explicitly write in the doc HAHAHAH thank you for asking me about it!!!!!<3
