SiWC Tips 'N' Tricks

2010 SiWC presenter Jay Lake brings us this to-the-point writing tip:

"I only have one rule of writing. Everything else is a guideline. Sort of like the Pirate Code.


1. Write more."

Easier said than done? If you're following Jennifer Crusie's advice, linked in our last Tips 'n' Tricks post, then you're probably already writing more. But if you're struggling to define what "write more" means for you, check out Jay's specifics on his blog here.

What are your best writing tips? Feel free to post them in the comments below. Maybe you'll inspire someone to get over writers' block or finally finish that WIP.
