I just had a go! Here it is...

1. Once in a blue moon.

2. In my chair.

3. Notebook, then straight to PC for wordprocessing/editing.

4. Those are my drafts.

If my subconscious, or reports from poetry groups (online
or otherwise) doesnt report negatively then the original impetus
is dead in a day or two and I darent go back to meddle. If something
is wrong it might take me months before I get around to fix it.

5. Strong emotion.

7. All my work goes out on the Internet/Web immediately. Then I
sit back and see if I have scored a hit, or if not worry about
any possible improvement or whether to forget about the poem.
It does not get removed from the Web. Sometimes I change my
mind later.

8. I like to write sequences with all my work related. I am only
really happy writing a sequence. And the best time is when you
are halfway through it. Each poem should relate to other poems
in the sequence.

9. I dont perform.

10. My habits have grown up over twenty years. I get ideas and phrases
in my head then eventually start writing them down. The final act of
writing is very swift but the material may have been formulating in
the background for weeks, months and/or years. I dont know any other
way of doing it.
