You know, I haven't written as much as most other writers. Certainly maybe those who keep a more regular schedule accomplish more.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Writing is a funny thing. It's not like you're working on a schedule. It comes in fits and starts.
I haven't always been a writer and I suppose I tiptoed around the idea of writing full time, because it's so isolating.
Why do writers write? Because it isn't there.
I'm not the kind of writer that can write eight hours a day... I'm the kind of writer that the more time I have, the less efficient I am.
I just have a thing for writers. Maybe it because I'm just so not a writer.
Writing only leads to more writing.
Like so many writers I started writing stories because I didn't have much time for anything else.
One thing that writers have in common is that they are readers first. They have read lots and lots of stuff, because they're just infested with lots of stuff.
I'd rather see a writer write 15 minutes a day than save it all up for a Saturday. A work gets a coating on it when it's not been worked on for a while, makes it hard to break back in.
Writers don't write writing, they write reading. When I was a kid, I read four or five books a week. And that is how I became a writer.
