A lot of people ask published authors what their writing process is like, as if it is a key to being able to write. The only important process is the one that works for you. So, we’re going to let each of our hosts spend an episode explaining their own personal process. Our idea is that the best writing process is the one that works for you. Also, this is going to change over the course of your life and career.  Today we’re learning about Mary Robinette’s writing process, which is built on having a totally random schedule.Homework: What helps you want to do the things that aren’t writing? For instance, the other tasks and joys in your life? Because the tools that you use for those, also work for writing. Is it lists, or spreadsheets, or body-doubling? Now, see if you can use those same things to help you write more. Credits: Your hosts for this episode were Mary Robinette Kowal, DongWon Song, Dan Wells, Erin Roberts, and Howard Tayler. It was produced by Emma Reynolds, recorded by Marshall Carr, Jr., and mastered by Alex Jackson.Join Our Writing Community! <a href="https://writingexcuses.com/retreats/" rel="nofollow">Writing Retreats</a><a href="https://writingexcuses.com/#newsletter" rel="nofollow">Newsletter</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/WritingExcuses" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/writing_excuses/" rel="nofollow">Instagram</a><a href="https://www.threads.net/@writing_excuses" rel="nofollow">Threads</a><a href="https://bsky.app/profile/writingexcuses.bsky.social" rel="nofollow">Bluesky</a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@writingexcuses" rel="nofollow">TikTok</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@WritingExcusesPodcast" rel="nofollow">YouTube</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/WritingExcuses" rel="nofollow">Facebook</a> Our Sponsors: * Check out Aeropress and use my code WX for a great deal: https://aeropress.com * Check out Gusto: https://gusto.com/WX Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/writing-excuses2130/donations'>https://redcircle.com/writing-excuses2130/donations</a> Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>
