Hello writing people.
I have a question for yall. I have to analyze some shit and it got me thinking: How do writers go about writing stuff? Do you have the idea and the meaning you want the piece to have before you start writing, or does whatever you're writing acquires meaning in the process of writing/after it's done.

What shit do you have to analyze OP?

Cat in The Rain by Hemingway.
I was gonna go about doing in in a particular way, but now that I'm thinking about it, it's not gonna work. But yeah, I got to a point where I was wondering what difference does it make if the idea was there before the text or it appeared after the text. And can there really be any meaning under the surface in the second case?

It varies from author to author. Some people go for a mood, some people go for multiple meanings, etc, etc.
In all likelihood tho
