The Writing Rituals Tag

Hello Lovely People,

Good morning, I hope you all are having a lovely morning day and kicking the weekend off to a great start. You guys know how I love writing tags and book tags, and I created one myself not too long ago Liscense To Spill Author Confession writing tag, so it's not surprising that I decided to do the tag that Kim Chance and Mandi Lynn came up with.

Writing Rituals Tag

1. When do you write?

• I usually write at night.

2. How do you seclude yourself from the outside world?

• I usually put on headphones and listen to film score playlist, but I am thinking of creating a film score playlist that suits the tone of each current WIP.

3. How do you review what you wrote the previous day?

• I edit as I go most of the time, but every couple of chapters Reread what I've written. I decided not too long ago that I would use track changes make notes and go back and edit later and color the flaw in that area, but continue writing that way it will be easier to edit later.

4. What is your go to song when you are feeling uninspired?

• 'Up'- Star Darlings, Rise Up - Andra Day, 'Reach For Your Drams' - Photoronique, 'Blessed and Unstoppable' - Billy Alsbrooks

5.What do you do when  you find yourself struggling with writer's block?

• Step back and do some reading, research, take a small break, meditate, and go back to it with fresh eyes, and pray that what I need to make the story will come to me as I write.

6. What tools do you use when when writing? 

• Word and sometimes my notebook journal where I took notes and/or print outs of my outline, character profiles, research/story info.

7. What's the one thing you can't live without during writing sessions?

• When I can do it I will have a small snack bowl full of snacks I like for when I take breaks, but now its whatever I choose to eat during breaks.

8. How do you know when you're done writing?

• Tough to answer, but I guess when I express and execute the significance well and I feel like I done all I wanted and planned for that story. I feel the significance you want come across to the reader is one of the most important aspects when writing a story.

I hope you enjoyed my answers on this tag.

I am tagging all writers. Enjoy!😉
