I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.
I can vouch for all of these concepts. One thing to add: a lot of folks assume that having a routine means being boring, but I couldn't disagree more. My mind is focused on everything that's important since my day's activities are more or less identical from day to day, so hopping in to write first thing every morning isn't really a decision; it's automatic.
Make your routine automatic, so you can focus on the things you're passionate about!
Agreed. There is nothing as easy as a habit, so if you're serious about writing you should make it into a habit. I think that for most writers, the hardest thing is to get started. Once writing becomes habitual, it's less difficult to get into your flow.
