I've recently started a practice of writing my novel for an hour first thing in the morning, and it's truly feeling like a sweet escape that sets me up so well for the day. Whatever else I need to tackle that day, I've spent time in my own little fantasy world and that's at least one beautiful thing.
I see my scenes play out like a movie in my mind. Sometimes in slow motion. I consciously think of the senses and what I can see in my minds movie. I can see the detail much like a futuristic 3D CSI model I can move around in. It's quite fun to direct your own story lol.

Love it — that sounds amazing!!
To me the best way to make writing feel sweet again is to take a break, after a while I want nothing more than to write again.
I completely agree! Taking a break can also make revisions feel so much easier to tackle.
Exactly — so glad you enjoyed the interview! How do you keep writing playful?
