Things to remember when writing.....
1) Shitty first drafts are okay.
2) Good writing is about telling the truth.
3) Perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor.
4) Those voices in your head, the ones that keep you from writing, need to be locked up in a mason jar.
5) One inch picture frames help when you are overwhelmed.
6) Write every single day.
7) Let bad things happen to your characters (especially those annoying good ones).
8) You have to kill something in your story. Fear, hope, relationships, crushes, things like that. Or people. Which ever you prefer.
