A Safe Prescription for Writing

If you're like me, you're always looking for shortcuts. Believe me when I tell you there aren't many, if any. The only thing we can do to get our book written is sit butt in chair and write. We can make writing a little easier by educating ourselves by taking writing classes and reading how-to books. We can also go to the bookstore and study what's on the shelves. What was the last book you read? If you don't read, you won't be too successful at creating your romance, mystery or action novel. We learn to write by reading. We learn to write by writing.

I'm not a pill-popper, but I'll admit if there was a pill for creativity or plotting or even effective brainstorming, I'd probably be the first to ask for a prescription. I wouldn't even ask about side-effects! :)

Let us be the pill you pop. Our Professional Writer's Center is working on the Spring schedule now. If there's a particular class you'd like to see offered, leave a comment, please, and we'll try to make it happen just for you.

Now get back to your computer and write 500 words before midnight. :)
