“About writing I learned that always, always, always it's necessary to haunt your settings. I'm a big researcher. All my fiction is based on tons of digging. But the vital importance of actually traveling to the settings of a novel really hit me. And it's not just the setting details, not just the visuals and other sensory data, that will pop. You'll find surprising clues that swerve your story in whole new, deeper, surprising, more organic ways.” WritingNovelImportanceClue Author:Lucy Jane Bledsoe
“I love my work. What's more fun than playing with imagination? I also believe storytelling is the most powerful way people communicate with one another, interpret our lives, share our dreams, even form our futures. So when I sit down to write every day, I keep the fun, and also what I consider a large cultural project that connects people, at the center of what I'm doing.” PeopleWritingBelieveDreamFunImaginationPowerfulShareCommunicateStorytellingMost PowerfulOur Future Author:Lucy Jane Bledsoe
“Writing is incredibly hard. But I want to do it. That said, I make it the top priority in every day, which for me means the first hours after getting out of bed in the morning. I've been doing it enough years now that I don't even think about waiting for my muse to show up, I just get to work.” ThinkingWritingMeanEnoughWaitingHoursMorningPrioritiesMuse Author:Lucy Jane Bledsoe
