90 Days to Your Novel Quotes

“Good writers aren’t born good writers; they develop into good writers through dedication and practice. Through hard work. Through habit.”
― Sarah Domet, 90 Days To Your Novel: A Day-by-Day Plan for Outlining & Writing Your Book

“Self-taught fiction writer Octavia Butler once noted, “Forget inspiration. Habit is more dependable. Habit will sustain you whether you’re inspired or not. Habit will help you finish and polish your stories. Inspiration won’t. Habit is persistence in practice.” (Emphasis mine.) Yes, inspiration might contain the spark and life of your idea, but habit gets the writing done. Inspiration resides in your heart; habit resides in your fingers. Inspiration propels; habit completes. Art equals habit plus inspiration. It’s a simple equation.”
