You either sit down in a chair and make words, or you don't. I am not saying that it isn't harder sometimes than others, but you either sit in the chair and write or you don't. It doesn't have to be manna from heaven every time you sit down, but it does have to be words placed in the word processing software of your choice. If we all waited until inspiration fell down on our typing hands, nothing would ever get written. (less)

Why Did I Write The List Of Five?




People may ask, "Why? Why Jason? Why? Why did you write that book?" and I hope that they do it with a sense of wonderment in their voice and not a sound in their voice that sounds like thinly veiled contempt.



I just thought I would talk to you a little about that. Everything I write has a little piece of me in it. I believe it is that way for all writers. If we can't feel something a Read more of this blog post »
