Writing Marathons and Playing with Memories

44 min • 4 maj 2022

According to Bradbury’s retelling, it took him nine days, a library typewriter, and a pocketful of dimes to crank out his first version of Fahrenheit 451. Is such a feat possible in today’s distracting world? We decide to give it a try (or at least one day of a try) and report on the results it in this episode. If you want a play by play of the day, check out our bonus podcast on Patreon. 

In another chapter of his writing craft book, Zen in the Art of Writing, Bradbury recounts how he mined his childhood memories to write his book Dandelion Wine. As a memoirist, Renee  shares how she digs deep into her younger self’s recollections, which aren’t quite as idyllic. 

Remember, we have a Writers Process meetup every Wednesday. Check us out.
