ADVICE

Daily Writing Discipline

  • Commit to daily writing goals to maintain discipline; Stephen King targets 2,000 words a day, Ken 1,000.
  • Consistent output helps break down large writing projects into manageable progress.
ADVICE

Write When Inspired

  • Write whenever you feel compelled by an idea rather than second-guessing yourself.
  • Inspiration-driven writing produces authentic work and is better than forcing creation without motivation.
ADVICE

Write Books in Chapters

  • Break down a book project into smaller chapter-articles to manage writing effectively.
  • Focus on getting ideas out in practical segments rather than aiming to write a complete book all at once.
