Mike Stop Continues
Habit. I wake up at 6:30 every day to write, and if I don't have any reason to stop, I'll write for most of the day.
Sometimes I get sick or miss sleep a few too many nights in a row, and I just don't feel like writing. In those cases, I think about how happy I'll be to give the world a story that's near to my heart, and I sit my ass down to write.
I think it's really important to teach myself that even when I'm sad or sick or tired, I write. Writing needs to be as natural as breathing because in the end, writing is all the world will have of me. And that's only if I get exceptionally good at it, which only writing more can help me to do.
