My writing process is sitting in front of my laptop and trying not to cry

Ever wanted to get inside a writer’s mind and take a look at their creative process? Well, this week Louise O’Neill shares hers.

The Guardian runs a feature called My Writing Day where authors explain their ‘process’. My process is sitting in front of my laptop and trying not to cry at my own ineptitude - it’s a delight! - but I thought I would make it sound somewhat more professional for the sake of this column.

Apologies to those of you who have absolutely no interest in my daily routine because I’m about to bore you to death.
