Abstract

ABSTRACT: In my essay, 'Paying Close Attention, Thinking To Some Purpose', published in New Writing Volume 17, 2020, Issue 3, I considered the part played by purposeful thought in a fiction writer's creative process. Sanchia Page, 1983 is a chapter from The Former Boy Wonder, the novel-in-progress at the heart of this essay. Seen together, chapter and essay represent a continuous narrative of theory and practice designed to illustrate a novelist's methodology.
