This is a brilliant article for a writer. 25 Things Writers Should Stop Doing
Very helpful at keeping one committed to their ideals ans keeping them on track with the issues they struggle with.
That crap out not crap in should be my mantra this year lol. :-).
I struggle to get the balance of exercise and food portion control right with a full time creative life passion and all external reminders of the importance of exercise in order to write, assist me.
I liked the advice to not chase a genre or what publishers say they want you to write. That will help keep me true to writing the novels I want to write and to heck with how easy it will be to get my voice published. I know from my other creative fields, if you learn from others you can improve but if you copy others, you are just a half rate version of them and have copied the mistakes as well as the good bits but never learn the difference.
