FROM THE ABOUT PAGE...
the real purpose of this exercise is to alleviate
our natural tendency to edit everything—and learn
to flow.
an analogy would be a film camera:
when a film is shot, the camera just rolls and captures
everything—good and bad. when all the shooting is
complete, the raw film is edited into a cohesive piece.
the camera operator doesn't keep stopping the camera and
rewinding and editing on-the-fly—the camera just rolls.
if it were to stop, some of the best performances
and spontaneous moments might be missed.
so:
be the camera. well, that's a stupid saying, but
you get the idea. in writing—just flow. go back later
and edit.
Go write.
Leaving for NECC in a few hours....Guess it is time for me to get back at it!
It was really cool meeting you at EBC. I look forward to reading your PDmeme post. BTW, Drew (http://drewsnotes.wordpress.com) really wants someone to tag him for the meme.
