Trying to write a novel while working a day job sucks.
But don't abandon your quest.
Find a way to carve out some time.
A little bit every day adds up.
Believe in yourself! 🍁🍂🌿🍁📚

When you're at work, and you pretend to be listening, but you are really thinking about your WIP...

When you can't stomach another polish of your 350-page manuscript, and you're about to type "final draft" - but your subconscious knows better...

Don't talk about what you're writing.
Just write.
It can take away some of the magic.
I don't know why.

When you're in the middle of a crucial chapter,
and you get interrupted for the tenth time...

I have found that it's so much easier to write when there's no one looking over your shoulder, or imposing a deadline that isn't your own. It's just... better.

When you're cheating on your new book idea with another new book idea...

No matter what happens, no matter how hard it is to market and promote (really difficult), it feels so good to have a new book out there in the world.

You know you're a writer when one of your characters tells you, "I'm not doing that."

You know you're a writer
when you dream up scenarios
for people you see in coffee shops.

When you're a writer and a story is burning a hole in you,
but you're having computer issues and you lost the draft...

When you write a 20-page outline
and know your characters' back stories
and know exactly where the story is going,
and now all you have to do
is sit down and write it...
