Re: Writing Process

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not familiar with Chuck Wendig but if he is like a lot of people who offer writing advice, it might be worth considering who the advice is intended for. For instance, when I was a young author, I started tons of stories and never finished any of them. Seeing how many WIPs exist from young fanfic writers, I feel like I'm not alone in this. Learning to stick with something is a valuable tool and a key step to being a successful writer.

But, for more established, confident writers, you can start something as an exercise to free your mind or challenge yourself or for fun, and it won't interfere with your ability to write other stuff to completion - you've figured out the secret on how to write.

If you are looking for advice, chances are you are more likely not a confident writer, in which case the best advice is usually "write, write, write", and "finish your shit" is another obvious but really useful piece of advice. And, the more confident writers who listen for the love of writing will generally know what pieces of advice apply to them and this would not be one of them.

Of course, as I said, I do not know what context this comes from for your example but that's generally how I've seen it.

Re: Writing Process

[sarillia]

I agree with this. I think it's just that I see hints of a kind of all or nothing attitude in it and that sort of attitude always bothers me. Like it's assumed that you're either finishing nothing or you have to go in planning to finish everything. I don't know, my mind is probably just going weird places again.

Re: Writing Process

No, I can see that. I mean, sometimes someone will say something sweeping and I know that it doesn't apply to me and it's probably not meant to be sweeping but I just get cranky about it.

And, of course, some people are idiots and think their way is the ONLY way. You can't always know which it's going to be when listening to someone, so you get defensive. That seems fairly reasonable to me.
