An excerpt from today’s idea development process, as I discuss random thoughts with Amy in the middle of other things:

“Hm. What should I write about today?”

“– pizza.”

“I can’t write anything about pizza.”

“Do they even have pizza?”

“Well, I don’t know the details, but there is a food, a flatbread, that you can — pile stuff on. And another type of bread, only this one has stuff stuffed into it! And these two are LOCKED in an endless BATTLE for market share! So –”

“Two bready foods enter, one bready food leaves?”

“Yeah, don’t think I can write about that.”

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I don’t discuss my process.
