I thought it was a really creative concept, and impressive in the way they made it all fit together. That's one of the things that I think every story, whether a book or a film, has to have.

I loved Inception - the others I've only heard of, never actually watched. I do a lot of socializing online myself, since I used to keep very odd hours.

Indeed. One of my biggest problems is just making myself write on a daily basis. There always seems to be something else to do. That's partly why I'm also not too familiar with a lot of films. What are your favorite films?

I don't plan a whole lot - if I get the spark of an idea, I'll write down a sentence or two so that I'll remember it (I also don't remember things), but I like to leave the story undeveloped until I've gotten through the first draft. Otherwise, I find that I lose interest about halfway through or I'm too confined in what I write. Generally, the process of writing the first draft develops characters and plot for me, although it leaves a lot for editing then. So in contrast to you, I don't want to know where the story is going until it gets there - it's more like reading in that sense. I write fantasy and scifi primarily, since that's what I usually read.

What's your writing process like? I've done some writing - not published, but it's fun.

Hello,
I've been lazy at meeting new people that follow me on Shelfari, but I'm trying to change that. I'd love to talk if you have time! Feel free to note me on my profile, or follow me on my blog: flipflyfall.blogspot.com
