I've always kind of wrote when I wanted to. Once I get the idea in my head and get it outlined out, I usually just sit and write until it's done.

I essentially write for myself.

I want to wake up one morning and know how to write page one, or page 10, or page 250. But I never seem to know how to do it. Every book is different and takes a different structure, style, process, etc. And relearning how to write is where the insanity comes from.

The tough thing about writing is you go into a room alone, you close the door and you do your work.

What I write, I write. I'll always do it in some form.

For any writers at all, read everything you can and then put your butt in the chair and write. That's all there is to it.

I write the way I write.

I can always write. Sometimes, to be sure, what I write is crap, but it's words on the page and therefore it is something to work with.

Spend more time working before you write page one. Then, the story - at least parts of it - will feel as though it is writing itself.

The main thing about writing is... writing. Sitting your butt down in the chair and doing the work.
