Once you have an idea of the type of story you’d like to write, ask yourself why you really want to write that story. In fact, write at least five reasons you want to write that story. And ask yourself what is the end goal for your story relative to your potential readership. Above all, patience is key - don’t rush your work. (less)

Eric’s Quotes

“Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And, of course, stability isn't nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand.”
― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
