Today's writing tip: write first
Here's today's writing tip. Write first.
That is, work on your most important writing project before you do anything else.
If you write part-time, that means get up early, and complete your day's writing on your project.
If you're a full-time writer, work on your most important project first.
This is especially important if you're working on a big project.
You'll find that until you realize what's happening, "big" projects tend to intimidate you, because they're hard to control. This leads to procrastination. For example, writing a book is a big, and therefore chaotic, and messy project. You need to accept this, because with a large project, you can't control it. The project will come together, but only if you work on it every day. You need to trust yourself. If you skip days, your doubts will overcome you.
