Or indeed check these notes out. 

I like that advice of ignoring advice only when you want to is wrong. 

Yeah can't handle the grammar one - no way Reb or I can do that one ever. 

Write what you know ( is wrong). 

It's OK to use said ( in fact I thought it was generally recommended )

How to write 

I like this. 

The best writing comes from within. Writing is a form of play, allowing us to untie knots in our hearts.  

Writing is a story 

Keep a sketchbook ( write down anything which moves you ). 

A novel is how your characters change.  ( he's so right ) 

**** 

Word of the day adumbration  fore-shadowing- co-evolution writing & planning not planning than writing. Avoid  writing and planning ( to late! ) definitely.  


This is more why to write ( rather than how )
