Lesson #1:
Although most authors are introverted, lonely creatures, we too thrive in good company. We love writing retreats, writing festivals and conferences. We look forward being part of a group and once someone gets us talking, well, we never stop. The time we spend with a kindred soul, helps us live better, write better.

Lesson #2:
Passion and enthusiasm do help. Especially at the beginning when no one seems interested in what you have to say. But unless you have a well-thought backup plan, don’t quit your job just yet. Keep things in perspective. Always know where your next meal is coming from.

Lesson #3:
Live, just live for a while. Go after what you want, choose to do what you like. Their life is punctuated by question marks and exclamation points. There is never a pause line. They see reasons for wonder and satisfaction in everything. They crave novelty more than they crave the last piece of my dinner.
