The third cup of coffee. It does it every time. When I need focus, when I want to clear my mind, and put extra effort into writing. Nothing else does this for me.
My brain kicks into overdrive. Thoughts pour out. No filter. Perfect for the type of writing I’m doing.
Writing action scenes is intense.
[Tweet “I’m there. In the scene imagining what would happen. I can see the details.”]
My senses kick into overdrive. I smell the dew in the air, feel my heart race, and know the weight of the actions. It’s an intense experience.
Today, I wrote a scene about a gun battle. I pulled the details from my training. Vivid is the only description.
Here’s an excerpt:
” I sprint to the left of the door. Blinded from the flashbang. Slam into the wall and fire 3 shots through the door. They want a fight. Here it comes.”
