Your Monday mote
A little of what you fancy does you good
At my in real life writers group last week, author Lizzie Page, dropped a gem which honestly blew my mind with its simplicity.
Write the bit that you like.
It’s a genius piece of thinking.
Why?
Because it takes the pressure off.
It’s free-form, it’s liberating and it’s fun.
You want to write the last line? Do it.
You want to write the fight scene? Knock yourself out.
The gratuitous chapter where she bakes a cake. Get it written!
Honestly, since she said that, I feel like my world has changed.
Lizzie was interviewed for a Ten for The TEN earlier this year. Check it out here. It’s a great read.
In the meantime, you do you, babes.
And whatever that is, you enjoy it!

Love this and the interview. SO true. Write what you want. I write about the Maya and I know that's very niche, but I LOVE writing and researching the Maya, so---- there you have it! It's exhilarating to follow what you like and want.
