Every writer must practice waiting patiently for a new thought to arrive. We do it when we write, and we can do it when we don’t. 

There are no real mistakes in writing, no good and bad, just what belongs in your story and what doesn’t.

Everyone has an inner manager who helps them organize their life. They’re super useful, but can’t help you write your story. 

Whether you’re ghost writing or working entirely from your own inspiration, we’re all on assignment in one way or another. 

You don’t have to write for two or three hours a day to be a successful writer. Even 30 minutes a day can be enough to stay connected to your work and write a book of any length.
