Being at work more than I'd like to, I try to be consistent with my writing. Taking advantage of my lunchbreak and doing sprints. Heck, sometimes I write in my car at my workplace's parking lot if I'm really hellbent on finishing the rough draft of a certain scene or chapter. Now that I think about it, I hardly write at home and I chill on the weekends. Sometimes I write 100 words a day, others, 3000. Just depends. Regardless of daily word count, I try to be consistent when I can. 😊

Also having a Freewrite helps me focus more than my laptop.

The consistency is what matters!

Love this. They don't have to be good words! Just write. Great encouragement and reminders here.

Called out first the in the morning. Lol. Let me read after getting a couple sprints under my belt today.

I've be off the horse for a few days and needed this. Thank you

Loved listening to this article :) All valid tips on writing and publishing. Right now, I am looking for publishers, and I can relate to the wait time. Also, agree with the point on writer's block. Just keep your expectations low and start writing anyway!

Great advice as always. I found the plot resolution a bit confusing. An example would help
