Climate Change Poem Process (Patreon)

And here's some unglamorous but vital early WIP towards the Climate Change pitch. You can see here the mind map that I started with, which is how I came up with the hook "Rising" that I wanted to explore. 

Then I opened up Evernote and started mashing little snippets of phrases. I will basically write something 2 or 3 ways, crossing out previous attempts that I don't like as I rephrase them. I prefer to cross things out than to delete because I find it helps prevent me "writing in circles". I can see both the previous version and the latest version side by side and it helps me decide which one I prefer. 

In brackets are images that I want to remember, that I will probably use to juxatpose against the text. 

My next step is to thumbnail this out. As I break it down into panels and pages I will probably need to be more selective with my words.
