Nothing Concentrates Like A Hanging

Sorry to be out of pocket for the last day or so but my deadline on my book is Saturday.  Actually want to get it done tomorrow to leave time for any last minute blow-ups.  So I am concentrated.

If you ever want to write a book, don't.

It is too much work, worry and way too much time spending time with yourself.

If you get the urge to write a book and want to fight it, don't write something bad.  A lot of book publishers make a lot of money printing bad stuff.

If for some reason you do want to write a book, get disciplined.  That really hurts.  Sit down and write.  It's called Get Your Butt In The Chair.

And if you get writers block, blow past it.  Right something even if you think it stinks.  Reading it later you may not be able to spot the stinky part. 

Or if you get writers block, talk and write it down.  Charles Dickens, upon encountering writers block, would imagine a parrot on his shoulder.  He would then write down whatever the parrot said and what he said back.  Try it.  It works.

Enough.  Will be back soon.

May we presume this was a post by the parrot ?
