What is the best quality needed in writing a book, in your opinion?
Eric Buffington
The standards answers would be hard work, tenacity, and creativity. They are definitely necessary, but I want to also include one I think is critical.
Humility is one thing I've learned is very important in writing. Asking for and listening to feedback has made my books so much better than I could have done on my own.
