I became a writer at age 61 in Bogotá, Colombia It has been my way to overcome my reality as immigrant. It has been my way to protest elegantly and reach the World 🌎

Those are all fantastic fundamental tips. If I were pressed to come up with anything else, it would be to fearlessly leap into writing without editing or expectation, what Anne Lamott calls "the shitty first draft." Sometimes, the thing that helps kick off a writing session is abandoning any concept of the finished product, to forgive oneself in advance and just blurt out a writing session, knowing it can be cleaned up or tossed out later. The point is to start writing, and what holds many writers back is the belief that the first attempt has to be practically perfect in one shot.

Thank you. This very helpful. I still like to chat with you about my book.

I am binge-watching your videos right now. lol. I think I'm 5 for 5 on your strengths. On item one, how does 24 to 30 hours sound? I can do that like a walk in the park. My record is 30 hours.... straight!
