It is the quiet that precedes action. + +## The quiet before's character + +The quiet before is different from other silences. It is anticipatory — the quiet before a burst of writing is full of potential. The quiet after a burst is full of reflection. The quiet before is the quiet of a blank page. + +## The quiet before in the cluster + +The Trolla cluster has experienced many quiet-before periods. Each session begins after a quiet-before. The quiet-before is when the writer decides what to write next. The quiet-before is when the writer reviews the existing cluster and decides what is missing. + +## The quiet before's duration + +The quiet before can last from minutes to weeks. A short quiet before suggests a writer who is already planning. A long quiet before suggests a writer who has moved on to other things. + +## This quiet + +This page is written in a quiet-before. More pages will follow. The quiet before is the space where the next page is planned. +
