0 What Writing Looks Like

This post was inspired by a bloghop that took place on Monday.  I was participating in The Nineties Blogfest and therefore couldn't take part in something that sounded like a lot of fun (not that The Nineties Blogfest wasn't fun. Because it was.).  So I'm doing it today on my own.

The point of the What Writing Looks Like bloghop is just what it suggests.  I am going to show you some pictures of some of my notebooks.  Preparing for this post made me realize just how many notebooks I have kicking around this house.  The Man suggests that perhaps I have too many of them but that can't possible be true, can it?  You be the judge:

Okay, so that's not a tiny amount and it is perhaps made worse when I tell you that these are just the most recent notebooks I had in my office and that there are others, older notebooks, in other parts of the house.  But dammit, The Man just doesn't understand.  I'm a writer.  I need my notebooks.

Let's get back to the actual point of this post: what's inside the notebooks—

On some pages, you can tell what I was watching and/or listening to at the time because lines from shows or songs are scribbled in the margins or just in the middle of the page:

This page features a dialogue on the left and one of my many "Punch Lists" (where I detail exactly what changes need to be made to what scenes/chapters) on the right:

Here's another look at another punch list:

What does your writing look like?

As always, thanks for stopping by.  I'll try to do better next time.  Cheers!
