Seagulls write their musings across the sky. Do they vacation from the need to fly?In his book, Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell reports that it takes 10,000 hours to become a master at something. For a writer that just scratches the surface. Discoveries and learning occur in every waking moment and during dream time.
It takes discipline and the distraction of sensory experience to awaken a writer's rhythm. Life surrounds us with words to choose for exploration.Why would anyone need a vacation from the thrills that writing provides?
Set a
date to write for an extended period of time. Designate a portion of
one day for a "writer's retreat." Prepare before the date with books and
writing ideas.
Then write on and on!
Then write on and on!
