There's something I've been interested in but find quite difficult to find: The original draft of a story. There's a lot of history and research into how painters pain: the techniques, the material, the time spent, and the sources. Writers, on the other hand, seem to be seamless when it comes to showing their process. It made writing harder, not near impossible, but hard to create a relationship without seeing a writer's original notes. Could you kindly show some of your writings, revision-less?
Here are some notes to myself on Coraline, with a path to the end of the book, and then some handwritten Coraline manuscript in first draft, and then the equivalent bit of it from the finished published book.
