Too late to teach an old (road) dog new tricks? All about process. The way I’ve worked in the past? The horoscopes get written, one shot, usually, all the way through, Each sign, one at a time, hand-crafted in our body shop and low-rider garage. No, really, each scope is done by hand – from chart cast by hand – and then typed by hand. And I don’t look back. Get to the end of one sign and it’s on to the next, as the theme, if there ever is one, gets repeated. Or not.
But I started, the other day, doing a final read-over before moving on the next scope. Instead of waiting until the scope goes live to figure out what’s wrong? I took a little extra time to re-read what I wrote.
Clever? Yeah, I impress me sometimes. But as a different method of working? I’m not sure. We’ll see.
