long time back i was asked to write a piece about my writing process for a university webpage*
it included the statement 'i write poetry waking up'
it has occurred to me this needs clarifying -
i dont literally wake up spouting worthy posey, that sounds pretentious or a medical issue
no thats not what i meant
i meant that to get writing done, i often go straight to the desk with coffee number one & start writing, start looking at phone notes & notebook scribbles & out the window & on the mind-shelves & while i am doing this i wake up
to summarise -
i WAKE UP while working on writing poetry
i dont wake up WRITING poetry
i hope this has settled the issue
