My teacher, John Dufresne, famously says the first rule of writing is to sit your butt in the chair and write...and wear Velcro pants. Second, read, read, read! You must be a good reading in order to be a good writer. Third, put your character in danger, real danger, and make he/she struggle to reach their goals. Danger+Drama=Good
