Write through it.

If you want to be a professional writer, there are going to be days you just don't feel like writing. There are going to be days where your characters all seem to be pouting in corners, your plot is flopping around like a wet trout on gravel, and "once upon a time" seems like a good beginning...to every single chapter.

Those days suck. But they're going to happen, and sometimes they're going to happen when you're on deadline and contractually obligated to have words on paper by a certain day. There are some days where I have the luxury to ponder for a while, to decompress and move on, but there are also days where you just have to get your fingers on the keys and remember that you have one area of your life where you get to be god: your stories. You choose what happens. You build the world. You tell the story.

While it's just a teensy bit megalomaniacal to look yourself in the mirror and go, "Hey you! You're GOD," some days that might be the only way to get writing. Also, when it comes to writer's block, remember the NaNo adage: you can't fix it if you don't write it. (less)

Quotes by Emmie Mears  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“For those who feel as though there is no place for them, For those who struggle to find purpose, For those who lose their way, May you find these things. Always keep fighting.”
Emmie Mears, Any Port in a Storm

“There's the kind of camaraderie that comes from leaning on someone in battle, and it's powerful. It's not too hard to trust someone to want to keep you alive. But trusting someone to actually live with you, to walk beside you — that is a fragile, precious thing.”
Emmie Mears, Eye of the Storm

“If you make art, people will talk about it. Some of the things they say will be nice, some won’t. You’ll already have made that art, and when they’re talking about the last thing you did, you should already be making the next thing.


If bad reviews (of whatever kind) upset you, just don’t read them. It’s not like you’ve signed an agreement with the person buying the book to exchange your book for their opinion.

Do whatever you have to do to keep making art. I know people who love bad reviews, because it means they’ve made something happen and made people talk; I know people who have never read any of their reviews. It’s their call. You get on with making art.”
Neil Gaiman

“It's just that I don't want to be somebody's crush. If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don't want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it too.”
Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower
