How not to be a writer - #4

Never write everyday. Or at all. By not writing everyday, you won't produce as much content, and you won't have to worry about needing something to write about. Or needing and wasting time that you can use to do something more useful to spend your life on. Like video games and web surfing. Those activities are useful, and if they are worth your time, then forget about writing. Why sacrifice any part of your day to writing? If you don't write everyday but some days, then why bother?

Writing inconsistently won't get you anywhere. To have the best chance at becoming a writer who publishes things, you need to be writing everyday, or at least 6 days a week if you can. You can start small, write a blog post everyday if you can't write something for your fictional story 9whether it be short story or a novel that you're working on).

That's basically why I started writing these blog posts. It's quick, raw, but gets me writing and held accountable by the world of internet.

So, to never become a writer, don't start a blog and start writing.
