Ever wonder what an author is thinking about while creating a masterpiece? This could be a book, an article, a movie, a music score, anything.
I’ve wondered myself plenty of times what it took for someone to create any work of art. What was their moods? Their process? Their motivations? The ideas they tested?
Well, now I’m in the weird position of knowing what the process is. Well. My process anyway. How? I’ve already created two stories on this blog. Epic by my standards in that they involved more than three posts to deliver. I’m also totally taken in by the reaction of those who enjoyed and cared to share their thoughts.
I’m impressed that I’ve impressed others. But that’s OK. It feels really good to know that my work is connecting with someone. Anyone. And that these people are taking the time to teach me things and share with me ideas to inspire me to create more… now that to me is way way way more than I ever had dreamed of.
So. What’s a guy to do? Create more of course lol
I’m now peeling a little bit of the curtain as I understand it to be and showing a bit of behind the scenes. Do not be too surprised if the peak behind the curtains does not reveal too much about the author and focuses way more on the process instead. There will be some bonus content that has not made the cut of the blog or is designed just for this segment.
Enjoy the peak through the curtains at a sliver of the process that goes behind some of the creations on this blog. Have a saucy rest of day.
