People often talk about the all-important first draft. After writing the past hundred or so years (a bit of an exaggeration there) I realized early on several important facts about writing.
- Set a daily writing routine.
- Set goals.
- Period.
Daily writing routine – Let’s give this some thought. We are by nature creatures of habit. We generally get up around the same time every day (most times it’s because we have a JOB) and we get home around the same time. We also eat and go to sleep about the same time every day. So why not start and stop writing around the same time – unless you’re in a ‘writer’s surge’ and nothing – but nothing should stop or interfere with that wonderful experience.
