Sounds about right (on writing)

As seen on Tumblr:



I have scenes in my head I see clearly. I plan out long, detailed dialogues. I come to write these things down and they're gone or refuse to transfer themselves to the screen.

I think every writer* wishes they could reach into their head and drag out the composition, fully formed, and drop it onto the page**.

**Screen/sheet of music/etc

I so agree with ALL of this! I've spent all day, while at work, mulling over a sentence or a paragraph and it's beautiful and I can see it so clearly in my head and then... there was a tree, indeed!

Oh, yes. It's frustrating!
