A Few Things I Know About Writing
1) If you take a break from a writing project it will take twice as much effort to come back to it than if you worked on it daily until it is complete.
2) No matter how hard you try to limit the number of characters you introduce into an original work, they multiple like bunnies. Bunnies. I swear the characters are off shagging somewhere and multiplying.
3) Midway through the project you will begin to doubt every word of the story--did I begin in the right place, is the pacing too slow, do I take too long to introduce key characters, is this shite?
4) You will begin to hate a 60,000 word story somewhere around 32,000 words. Will it ever end?
5) The more focused and determined you are to write a scene, the more ways you can find to waste time before actually sitting down and writing the words. Oh, wait, need to check my eBay auctions, see if anything is selling.
