- Before you write, read. And read widely, not just in your chosen genre.
- Edit brutally. Try to cut a chapter by 30%. It’ll almost always be better afterwards.
- Believe in yourself. You never know what you’re capable of until you try.
- Enjoy it. If you’re not having fun, put your pen down and go for a walk or read a book. You’ll get your appetite for writing back soon enough.
