On my writing desk, I put up things that help me write from time to time. Recently, I found a book by Stephen Wilbers, called ” KEYS TO CREATIVE WRITING” and the two pages I find most helpful, I have photocopied and laid down on my desk where I can see them as I write.
I have scanned them for you, in order to share. You can read few pages here. But I would urge any writer be it fiction, or non-fiction to go and buy the book. This would probably be a good investment for all writers and writer-wannabes out there, because it contains detailed info not only on writing a piece, but more importantly, on re-writing and editing it to perfection.
So here you go:

I definitely needed to read that. Especially commit yourself to seat time. I tend to get up or start surfing the web and my attention goes right down the rabbit hole. I need to stick to that seat time and really attend to WRITING it down.
Great advice on writing in stages.
