Planning to write is not writing. Outlining... researching... talking to people about what you're doing, none of that is writing. Writing is writing.
E. L. Doctorow
My attitude to writing is like when you do wallpapering, you remember where all the little bits are that don't meet. And then your friends say: It's terrific!
