S – Symbiosis

Although I’d love to, I’m not going to hold a biology lecture on the subject, promised. This post focuses on another aspect of creating stories.

Humans have two sides to their brain that handle different things. The right brain is considered the creative side and the left brain is thought to handle logical aspects. I, as an author, even go so far as to identify them as separate entities. I refer to them as my Muse and my Editor. When I’m writing first drafts, my Editor is slowing down my Muse, and when I revise, it’s the other way round. Thus, it is really hard for me to write more than 1500 words a day.

However, when I looked at the two more closely, I found that they are working together well and that I profit from it. They give me interesting stories that make sense, all things considered. And they get to connect with people other than me through my keyboard. In that sense, this is a relationship where all sides benefit – and that is considered a symbiosis. Isn’t that strange?
