Could not have said it better.
People sometimes imagine writing as inspiration striking from the heavens. Sometimes, as an author, you are not really sure where it comes from. Mostly, it is coffee, stubbornness, self-doubt, and arguing with imaginary people who refuse to follow simple instructions.
But every now and then, something special happens.
A character speaks in a way you did not expect. A battle turns. A quiet scene suddenly matters. A sentence lands just right.
And for a brief moment, all the noise disappears and the writing just flows out of you.
That is the magic of writing.
Not that it is easy. Being an author is never easy.
I do it because it is worth doing anyway, because you create something with meaning, something that others consider special.
As a reader, do you notice those moments? The scene where something suddenly shifts, where the story seems to deepen, turn in an unexpected direction, or come alive in a way you did not expect?
