#WritersCoffeeClub Jan 4: What aspects of your current or former profession do you bring into your writing? 1/2
I was a software engineer/development manager. I've belatedly realised that I use a similar semi-agile approach when starting out with a novel to long development projects. The same mindset at least.
Compared to some of the projects I ran, writing a book is quick.
The significantly different company cultures I've seen often inspire anecdotes or situations to annoy my characters.
