I like to play when I write, so I try different things. Sometimes it starts from a thought, a note, idea, image, or snippet of overheard conversation. Sometimes a strict structure seems needed as rhythms emerge, or rhymes appear. I think I like to keep things conversational myself, and I also have a fondness for ambiguity, dual meanings, and multiple possible outcomes. I edit a lot - even if I'm doing stream of consciousness, as the written word seems to linear to truly capture my leaps of thought.
