Stop writing like there is someone over your shoulder. There isn’t if you think that it is, you will never write. You will never write as you need! You will write for other people and not for yourself–this always cheapens the work.

Don’t sell yourself short.

Close the door and write. If the masses wish to peek in, send them to the corner and make them hush–or wait until you’re done.

With Love & Ink,
