Just get it written. All the advice in the world won't help you if you don't actually write.

This really helped me about ten or so years ago:

Make time to write. Especially the busier your life gets — you keep making excuses and keep promising yourself that you'll get around to it. Sometimes setting aside a specific time and then stapling yourself to a chair and writing is the best thing for your own improvement.

That, and of course knowing the rules of spelling and grammar (and yes, there are rules) is invaluable.

Love what you are writing, Love can push us to do our best.
So Love your writing.



I think the best thing about making it into the quote generator is when nobody tells you, so one day you're just scrolling and voila, some phenomenally inane thing that crawled out of your dying synapses and immediately regretted being born the second it made contact with the air has been archived for all time. Or worse, a remark of only average inanity. Never tell me when you've put me in the generator. Pride-tinged regret just doesn't taste the same without the spice of surprise.
