Love these tips, especially #1. I think it’s funny how many writers forget to actually write often.

I’ve found the Artist Date to be so important, even though it is still one of the first things I’ll drop when I’m busy!! Without a steady diet of them, I dry up and lose inspiration. Thanks, also, for the reminder to celebrate! I don’t think I ever do this…just off to the next project or goal. Taking time to do it might give me even more energy to go on.

Thanks for the great list. Not only did it help me organize my week (and take off some of the pressure of my previous to-do lists) it inspired my own set of “7 Tasks” lists for my therapy practice’s blog. http://bit.ly/1emYDh
I’m really enjoying your blog- interesting and motivating.
Thanks!

Another book I really love which is very practical is “Writing Down The Bones” by Natalie Goldberg.

Good post.

Awesome post! I read and went through the exercises in ‘The Artist’s Way’ several years ago. I might just break it out again and give it another shot. Definitely a good book that can benefit most writers.

I’m glad you included reading on this list. Too often, I hear people who wanna be writers complain about having to read. For me, reading is not a chore or work – it’s something I love to do and I think it really helps my own writing. At the very least, reading can be very inspiring.

Great post, keep up the good work!
