Curious Conditions: Dentist lets go!

So having my topic narrowed down was half the battle, now it was time to write this thing. My approach to write was a lot different than writing Curious Conditions: Emergency Room (CC:ER for short!). The writing experience with CC:ER was long, frustrating at times, and required a lot of editing as I didn’t really know what I was doing. I didn’t use an outline, but this time around I created one and found it to be a HUGE help. Outlining entails me to write down any possible thought that crosses my mind, no matter how small and dumb. It helps me put ideas in an organized and usable manner. The outline was helpful in many ways because I could see a clear direction. The elements that I did want to incorporate in this story included creating the character’s imagination more wild than before. I wanted to make sure to stay away from writing in a technical manner, for more or less that was how CC:ER sounded. I wanted to stick to a plot that was organized but also expose creative and surprising elements. I wanted to stay away from a generic and boring tour of the dental office, but rather make the experience fun and thrilling. With my outline in hand, I knew what I wanted so I let the writing happen.
