Mark Joseph Young
In part it depends on what I'm writing. For a lot of the stuff--the political pieces, the songs, the Bible stuff--I find I have something to say, so I say it. Often I will go back and read something I wrote before, sometimes years before, and realize that I have something to add to that. Sometimes it's because someone asks me a question. For the fiction, I'm usually looking for what the character can do next to move the story forward.
