Voices in your mind may say, “Your story is no good. Writing is too hard. You suck.” Here’s how you fight them: Write the next sentence. #writing

I feel a sudden urge to include the phrase “days of yore” in every work email.

The Whammo theory of screenwriting. Every 10 pages, something has to go “whammo”. Good rule of thumb for plotting. #screenwriting

As an architect myself, I don't embrace the pantser=gardener & plotter=architect analogy. You have no idea how messy, chaotic, unorganized, absently doodling & experimental architects are until they figure out the concept of a new project. It's totally akin to discovery writing

Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It’s self-conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can’t try to do things. You simply must do things. Ray Bradbury
Let your imagination lead you, #WritingCommunity, and ignore that self-doubt!

What people think the writing process looks like:
-Write your book
-Edit a little bit
-Get published
What the writing process actually looks like:
-Have an idea in your mind for years
-Jot down some ideas
-Avoid writing for several years
-Finally write something
-Edit forever

There will always be those rough days, close calls or waiting for a gig that never arrives; but I've never regretted following my passion. Life is way too short to have considered anything else 🙃

Sometimes I spend all day wanting to write but I’m too busy. Then when I actually get a chance to write, nothing happens.
Why do you do this to me, Brain? Why?? #WritingCommunity

A bad writing day doesn't make you a bad writer.
Not writing every day doesn't mean you're lazy.
Taking a break doesn't mean you're quitting.
Dropping a WIP doesn't mean you're giving up on your story.
Not being published in a year doesn't mean you're failing.
Keep writing.
