Writing Quirks

[author_by_night]

Writers are quirky, no doubt about it.

If you write, tell me some of your quirks. We all have quirky writing habits - whether it's how we write, how we get ideas, etc.

Anonymous commenting is allowed.

Go forth, but don't multiply, because writing and mathematics don't mix.

(... I'm weird, okay?)

I don't rewrite. I barely revise. I basically go into a story and write it, and if it stinks, I set it down and try something else.
Also, my stories often dictate themselves in my head. On the one hand, the stories that come out this way tend to be the best. On the other, if I don't have pen and paper (or computer) handy and a couple hours to get it down, I lose it.
