I wrote most of “Backstage Disneyland” on my iPhone while traveling to and from work on a commuter train. I’ve become pretty adept at writing on the phone and was surprised at how quickly the book came together.
In total, it took me about a month to write the book and a long three-day weekend to edit it. It helped that I knew the characters and the locations intimately. The writing seemed to flow out of me and I frequently found myself in such a groove that I’d write while I walked to or from the office or home after getting off the train.
The writing experience on “Backstage Disneyland” was far different than any of my past work. My novel took nearly two years to write and the screenplay four months. I’ve dropped a number of writing projects midway through the process just because I lost interest in the story or turned my attention to other things.
