Immediacy - Writing in Real Time

October 17, 2012 by ellaquinnauthor

Reblogged from Writers In The Storm Blog:

When we learn to read, we’re taught to take one word at a time, reading left to right. We still read like that (only hopefully, much faster.) We picture the scene happening in real time in our heads. That’s what I call immediacy in writing – the first words you read should happen before the next words, etc.
