Not writing is the easiest thing in the world. So mostly I push through by relying on old habits like writing at the same time every day, in the same place, using the same tools. When writing becomes ritualized, its easier to continuously produce work. Writing is a way of living and seeing, not just the physical act, so you have to treat it with enough sustained habit that you can write even when your brain feels empty.(less)

Write the books and stories you want to write. If you work hard enough, follow your passion far enough, raise your standards high enough, you will produce work that others will want to read. You have to develop thick skin as a writer. Everywhere you turn, people are going to tell you "No." Your answer to "no" has to be to write more. The page will always be your ultimate teacher if you will learn to listen to it.(less)
