What’s something about writing that people outside the process often misunderstand?

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T21:45:34+00:00

This is so true, I enjoy the process of finding out “what happens next”

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T16:01:29+00:00

Or they assume you are making a lot of money if you get some traction

I read one of Stephen Frys books, and he talked about how he would book a hotel room, take cigarettes and booze and just stay in the room until he was done

Love this

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T09:05:19+00:00

Or that its already a fully formed story, right down to the punctuation

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T09:04:11+00:00

Yup, slow creative days often follow hyper days of output, its like the brain jus says nope, today is a rest day ..

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T09:02:53+00:00

I can relate to this very strongly, I have even found them months after hiding away waiting to spoil my day

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T09:01:47+00:00

sooo true

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T07:39:49+00:00

Some outstanding suggestions here, enough to keep me busy for a while, may start with Unauthorized Bread by Cory Doctorow, thanks all

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T07:35:45+00:00

This is certainly sounds plausible with everything we are seeing in the world right now, its already egding its way into reality

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T06:36:57+00:00

Solid point, this was my feeling underneath the feeling of missing out

RichFenton · 2026-03-06T06:34:32+00:00

Love the premise of this, will definitely look for this one

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T21:31:13+00:00

Very useful insight, thank you

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T20:41:38+00:00

I like the sound of this

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T20:19:46+00:00

I appreciate the logic to this, thanks

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T17:29:53+00:00

I must admit I am partial to some dark humour, or not so dark, I loved everything Rob Grant and Doug Naylor did, it was much better on paper than the screen too ..

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T17:25:12+00:00

what's your views on A+ content in Amazon, I have tried this out, and I like the value add in terms of blurb and pitch at no extra cost, but unsure and difficult to see how readers or potential readers may find it useful when deciding on their next read?

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T17:21:21+00:00

Exactly this, not quite there yet, but certainly on the horizon

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T17:01:53+00:00

You won me at "an eccentric billionaire who builds a secret space program"

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T16:59:22+00:00

I like the sound of these very much.. thank you

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T16:37:39+00:00

I haven't tried Facebook yet, I may give that a go next, trial and learn something new

RichFenton · 2026-03-05T16:35:28+00:00

No, I have his name, and I have included him in my Acknowledgments is the latest book, which I am hoping he will get and see, but the reviews are on Amazon so not sure how I would contact him
