This piece is so funny. It's lovely reading about your process, and I love the way you have it as if they're really there in your life.

I'm glad that you find the piece hilarious, because I am still kind of grumbling about these assholes 11 days later. xD

My writing process is all over the place. I'm a discovery writer and a character-driven one at that, which is why I wrote it as if they're really here. Because they might as well be. Like I have conversations with them in my head (or over IM with Sarah -- with me going, "No, Savin, I won't write THAT," or "Damnit Jazz, why didn't you...") -- I just wrote those same conversations as if they happened out loud.

It doesn't help that I really DO look to the right or the left, depending on who I'm "speaking" to. I just never noticed that Jazz was always to my right and that Savin was always to my left, lmao.
