If writing doesn't tire you out, you're not writing. If writing doesn't wake you up, you're not writing. If you're not reading every day, you're not writing. If you don't yell at yourself sometime during the act, you're not writing. If you don't yell at someone you love during the act, you're not writing. If you don't feel a burning in your lungs, you haven't said anything. If you don't feel an ache in your temple, you haven't thought hard enough. If you think of it as writing instead of offering your friends an idea as a gift, you're on the wrong track. If your voice is affected, you're not being honest. If you use your readers to trap an enemy, you're guilty as sin. If you think you set the rules, you're wrong.
