For those who haven't seen it, one of ours recently put up a post asking for some help. is one of the sweetest people I have been blessed to meet on this platform. She has been here for a full year, and through all of steemit's ups and downs she's never failed to be supportive, with a kind word for everyone she meets.
You can read about her story HERE where she simply asks for votes and resteems, in fact she is quite adamantly opposed to donations.
is currently on vacation, but I know if she were here there would already be a a pay-it-forward post up about this, and while I can't quite fill her shoes, I'm taking a leaf out of her book. I ask that people visit Karen's post and give it a vote, and all of the liquid rewards from this one will also go to her.
And I thought it fitting to do a post inspired by for this :)
Recently Meredith hosted a community challenge, and during the course of this challenge in order to help participants meet the comment requirements she posted questions. In one of the questions she asked if we had a writing process, and though I didn't answer that one in her post, I thought about it and realized I have several, depending on what it is I'm writing.
When it comes to my novels I spend a lot of time in the plotting phase, and while I do a lot of note writing during this period, I also spend a great deal of time 'living' the story in my head. If possible somewhere scenic and inspiring.
I generally need to do something with my hands while I'm in this daydream state, and since I also tend to do my note writing in an actual notebook, this is typical of what you will find in between pages of "only legible to me" chicken scratch and abbreviations.
One of my favorite doodles is the one you see at the bottom.
My pen ran out of ink after completing a couple of pages of notes in between doodling, so after I went back up to the house to retrieve another I decided to head to the end of the dock.
At which point my doodling took on a form.
It was at this point I remembered to take some pictures.
I have no idea if there is an art out there like this one, I've been doing it since I was just a kid. I'm henceforth dubbing it Dreemit's Doodles.
And there you have it, one facet of dreemit's writing process. Does anyone else doodle as part of their process? In fact if you have anything quirky you do while plotting out a story or any form of art, let me know down below. And don't forget to vote for
Karen's post ! Thanks everyone!
