On Writing

Turn up for work.
Never stop when you are stuck.
Love what you do.
Be honest with yourself.
Don’t hold onto poor work.
Take no notice of anyone you don’t respect.
Take no notice of anyone with a ­gender agenda.
Be ambitious for the work and not for the reward.
Trust your creativity.
Enjoy this work.

The Full Story

For the longest time, I kept quotes in my journalling system - DayONE. I have been stadily moving all of them into this new public space and adding others as I continue to find them.

Click here to scroll through what is here - or here if you have a specific one in mind. There are a lot here.

A second series of quotes are stored here. Not as many and are actually more attributed words that appeal, not neccesarily ‘famous’ in the way the others are..
