The thing with writing… it’s like a multiverse. At every turn, there can be a million different potential paths to take. And you, as a writer, get to decide which one your characters will go on. That’s the most exciting part; the fact that no matter what you decide, you have the final say, and anything you pick could bring you down a different path - all different, all unique and exciting.
As writers, we get to control the directing, the dialect, the cast, and the plot all at once. There is nothing so complicated and nothing so rewarding as weaving strings together and watching as they take on lives of their own.
The art of writing is truly wondrous. It will never get old; I’m not sure it can.
