Passionate writers are successful, because they write everyday. They
slip time in for writing, sometime, during the day or night.
Perhaps, some set their alarms earlier to write. This is how you learn to write better. You practice.
It’s true that the more you nurture your talent, the better writer you’ll become.
Substitutes don’t exist for the passionate writer. He/she has to write through writer’ block, rejection slips, and the days when you’re not in the mood.
Passionate writers work with one word, for example, to curb writer’s block. Pull any word out of the air. Write several sentences about it,
to foil writer’s block.
If that doesn’t work, grab another word, or event to write about.
Writer’s block will scurry away as you continue.
Nurture your talent through rejection slips. Rejection isn’t comfortable coming from any direction. It isn’t a personal attack on you.
A rejection slip, for writers, is a fact of the writing life. Learn from
it, and don’t stop believing in yourself, your talent.
Could there have been something you didn’t do to make your work
more appealing to the editor? You requested guidelines for the publication? Were you familiar with its style, tone? Did you make sure your work was punctuation perfect? Was it the right publication for your work?
The above questions fall under writing better. They must be answered before sending your work out.
“I don’t feel like writing today.” You said.
In fairness, if you’re ill, don’t write. Nurture your talent when you’re better.
However, the passion for writing stirs you on. You feel better after writing a page or two.
Passionate writers rest when he/she has no choice.
The passionate writer is successful, because they make writing a habit. He/she nurtures his/her talent through obstacles like writer’s block, and rejection slips.
