A writer can do without food for a few hours but not without the sight of books.

If certain aspect needs to be inconsistent, it must better be consistently inconsistent throughout the story.

As you become a better writer, the writing becomes more difficult. You toil harder to tell a story in a smaller number of words.

If you think there is no time to write now, there will never be.

Ideas either age like fine wine or rot like potatoes over time.

Good writing ideas don’t have to be about political turmoil, mass killings, capitalism, racism, injustice, and so on. Find that one idea that has deep roots in your heart.
