"I find myself inclined to disagree with Dillard on several points, the most prevalent being the metaphor involving the writing process that portrays it as a path leading to a large box canyon. The writing process is assuredly NOT a set path, but is in fact a maze, with several dead ends that any author must encounter before finding a way to adequately create a story. During my writing sessions with Docta Haus, I have repeatedly found this to be the case.

"Furthermore, I think a good comparison to this process would be in fact that of running for the United States Senate. The threat of a deadline and of not making your stories believable is just as prevalent when writing a story as it is when running for office. Not to mention, similar setbacks may occur. Just as you may have to sell certain products to various Eastern European Plakáts in order to obtain funding for critical campaign advertisements, such products must be bought from such sources and then ingested in order to write a popular story, as esteemed director Quentin Tarantino has proven with his scriptwriting. All in all, the writing process requires time and effort that can only be mirrored by the most difficult of political campaigns."
