How to come up with a new story? I guess every author has their own unique method… I usually try to find a quiet, cozy place where I won’t be disturbed.
It is very important for me to put my physical body in order! Swimming in the pool is ideal! I try to swim for a long time, until I am completely physically tired, then I can find a quiet place and sit quietly. The next step is to try to remove unnecessary useless thoughts that are spinning in circles and do not bring real benefit. You can close your eyes and imagine a clean sheet of paper (this practice was given to us by a teacher at the art academy, Ildan Yakhin, who taught the subject of BOOK COMPOSITION))). After I managed to imagine a blank sheet of paper, I try to see blurry images on its surface and gradually make them more clear (it is advisable to have a sketchbook and a ballpoint pen on hand). You can write down your new ideas by voice or text on your phone, or on paper as text, then draw very small frames (CUCUMBERS) that follow the text and show schematically how it looks in the frame. You can stop there! Then it will be possible to fill each frame with more detailed details and draw frames in a large format, but this is another stage of work…
I still want to go back to a cup of cappuccino! This time this cup was beautiful and the foam pattern could be looked at for a long time, each sip of the drink gave me the necessary energy!!! The woman who made coffee and brought it for sure owns the magic of good deeds)))
