DEEP SPACE NINE: "The Muse" - REV. 02/20/96 - ACT TWO 26C.
24 CONTINUED: (3)
ONAYA
Revalus used to say a writer
should put pen to paper as if he
were a painter putting brush to
canvas. It's part of what he
called "visceral writing."
JAKE
(intrigued)
What's that?
ONAYA
It's one of the techniques I told
you about.
JAKE
Can you teach it to me?
ONAYA
(indicating the table)
That's why you're here, isn't it?
Jake scoots up to it, takes a few sheets of paper, and
uncaps his pen. She kneels behind him, places her
hands on his shoulders with such an easy manner that he
hardly notices.
ONAYA
The opening line of your novel...
write it down.
She watches as he does it...
ONAYA
Now...
(simply)
Keep going.
JAKE
What do you mean, keep going?
ONAYA
Write whatever comes to you... the
idea is to create a stream of
consciousness and see where it
takes you. You can edit later.
She starts to massage his neck...
ONAYA
Just write the first thing that
comes to mind... I won't look...
