Writing Journal, Too – An Inspiring 90-Day Challenge

A Simple Journal Exercise to Do Daily and Improve Your Writing

There are two things every writer must master.

There are two things every writer must do every day.

These two things are obvious.

But until they’ve been made into a pure and relentless habit, you will continue to struggle as an author.

Every – Single – Day:

• You must read.
• And you must write.

‎If you want to be a writer, you must do two things above all others: read a lot and write a lot…reading is the creative center of a writer’s life…you cannot hope to sweep someone else away by the force of your writing until it has been done to you.
– Stephen King

Read, read, read. Read everything – trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You’ll absorb it. Then write. If it’s good, you’ll find out. If it’s not, throw it out of the window.
– William Faulkner

You can’t be a writer if you’re not a reader. It’s the great writers who teach us how to write. The third thing is to write. Just write a little bit every day. Even if it’s for only half an hour — write, write, write.
– Madeleine L’Engle

Whenever I’m asked what advice I have for young writers, I always say that the first thing is to read, and to read a lot. The second thing is to write. And the third thing, which I think is absolutely vital, is to tell stories and listen closely to the stories you’re being told.
– John Green
