b4 i go. 1. always try and try again when youre writing, because this type of art is mastered with experience. even your cringey works from back then are progress and are 100% valid. 2. length or the amount of words arent everything. its the weight and the substance of your work that matters. 3. always strive and write to improve oneself. 4. if youre having a writers block, take time for yourself, i say this w 100% experience. 5. be open minded to criticism and take it with no strings attatched. 6. i think deadlines are shit and dont matter because it takes a toll on you with pressure and etc. 7. be always willing to write about different genres, because you'll never know when youre going to find your true calling. 8. have a good music playlist or podcast just for writing, it can get you in the mood of your story and etc. 9. make sure you arent comitting anything that you'll regret in the future, such as slurs and things in your poor works. 10. enjoy writing. thats the whole premise of it.
