It could be a sport or an animal (some of us have several!) or a hobby, it doesn't matter, but keep in mind that life is a balance, and that includes writing.

There will be days when the writing doesn't go well. There will be rejections and critiques that hurt. That's part of the road a writer travels, but having something joyful to balance that out is essential. The writing will always be there, finishing projects or getting published don't happen overnight.

Rushing is the worst thing you can do. Take a breath, take a walk, find a little peace, then get back at it!(less)
