I’ve been listening to Birdy a lot whenever I write a certain WIP since it matches the mood I’m going for.

One of the things I have heard the most is that you cannot wait until you're inspired or motivated to do something,

I think I tend to focus way more on my characters because it has been hammered into me that characters are the story.

The outlining process can take a lot of time, but I find that most of the time it does help out a lot when you actually start writing.

As I said, ideas can come from anywhere, but sometimes you can’t just sit around and wait for an idea to come to you.

The only way to really get better at something is to do it, and that’s all I’m hoping to do during this entire process.

At the end of the day, it is your writing and it is whatever you want to make of it.
