Creating a text

My thoughts on the creating of words here:
For me there is usually the bright flash of the cool idea, that item that seizes your imagination and won’t let go. Sometimes it’s an image. Sometimes it’s a cool scene. Sometimes its a series of things I want to riff about. But they are very much slices, bright points of light.
