Read a lot, listen well and deeply, and write a lot. […] If you read good books, when you write, good books… — Natalie Goldberg

Push yourself beyond when you think you are done with what you have to say. […] It is beyond the point when you think you are done that often something strong comes out.

Anything we fully do is an alone journey. […] You are alone when you write a book. Accept that and take in any love and support that is given to you, but don't have expectations of how it is supposed to be.

Just write. Just write. Just write. [...]

When we are in the heart of writing it doesn't matter where we are. We can write anyplace.
