And you know that I absolutely need FREEDOM to ease my internet addiction, as documented HERE.
(Above: Jane Austen tells me to get off the internet.)
But the actual writing of a book? How do you do that, you ask. Or rather, the International Reading Association (a.k.a. IRA, the non-controversial one) asked.
More specifically, Lara Zeises, author and IRA-er, invited me to create a video for ENGAGE and talk about my writing process.
Hmmmm . . . a video about how, when and where I write?
(Above: Where.)
In a former life, I used to write and produce commercials, plus I also was a writer/producer at Walt Disney World.
So contacted the best director/editor in the industry, and we got started.
Son and I brainstormed the script and then we shot on location in a single day . . .
And because this is a totally true and realistic and honest account of my writing process, actual, not-fake or Ketchup-y blood, was spilled . . .
What was it like taking direction from your own Son, you ask? Why, it was a breeze. So fun and easy . . .
Here's the Oscar-worthy video -- HOW I WRITE BOOKS . . .
