On the Creative Process of Writing
The writing process is not linear; it is more like a musical piece.
It has tempos, rhythms, and silences.
Approaching the creative process and the work being created functions like a dance, where there are moments of closeness and moments of distant observation. Each movement generates change, a new layer of meaning, and gives the text conceptual and linguistic maturity.
That is why the writer is also an artisan. The task is not an automatic or mechanical act, but an inner process — a back and forth, a dialogue — until, at a certain moment, the text reveals itself as complete, with its own tone and color.
Beautifully said 😊
Thank you, Celia!
