(paper) 
and knitting needles (pencil)
and wrap the string (ideas) around the needles then I start to work the needles together in a smooth rhythm until a little fabric (story) is produced. I weave the material together(characters) until, bit by bit, something starts to take shape. It could be a sweater, 
a hat or even a story. 
Sometimes something goes wrong, I drop a stitch or create a new one where one doesn't belong. Sometimes I even have to rip out some of the story, um, I mean sweater until I get back on track. And, I know, I can't just stop in the middle because I'm at the hard part. I have to keep on going, even when the going gets tough.
Finally, I exclaim "WAH-LAH" I've got a finished sweater, um, I mean story.
Is there anything in your life that reminds you of writing?
