I have reached the point where I know that as long as I sit down to write, the ideas will come. What they will be, I don't know.
This is not a screenplay. I don't do twenty drafts. I'm not going to show this to you until it's published or accepted for publication. You can make whatever suggestions you want, but I probably will ignore them entirely.
I really don't know what I am going to do in terms of what a book is going to be about until I actually start writing it!
I write five pages a day. If you would read five pages a day, we'd stay right even.
I needed to find my way to write. I need about six hours of uninterrupted time in order to produce about two hours of writing, and when I accepted that and found the way to do it, then I was able to write.
If you want to write, write it. That's the first rule. And send it in, and send it in to someone who can publish it or get it published. Don't send it to me. Don't show it to your spouse, or your significant other, or your parents, or somebody. They're not going to publish it.
Sure, I have advice for people starting to write. Don't. I don't need the competition.
