At the end of the day, remember.
This is how you do it. You sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until it’s done. It’s that easy, and that hard. – Neil Gaiman.

ReplyDeletegoing to be read it right now!
ReplyDeleteI think Gaiman got it right. There's no magic to it. If you want to write, you need to put words down, one after the other. If you do not actually do that, then you're not a writer, no matter what you imagine in your head.
ReplyDeleteI have atleast two friends who fashions themselves writers, yet none of them actually WRITE anything. In my mind, they're not writers then. In contrast, I've also got friends who do not consider themselves writers, but who writes stories, letters, articles, blog-posts totalling hundreds of pages every year.
I'm in the latter category. I'm not a writer, and I don't think I'll ever be. But I do write a lot.
