Stephen King Tells Us to Take Writing Seriously!

  • by Gary Holdaway
  • Posted on September 30, 2018October 5, 2018

About this he is absolutely clear. If you’re serious about writing as a career, you’re gonna need to start taking your writing seriously. That means treating it as a job, and scheduling in x-amount of writing every day. Whether it’s 2000 words a day, a couple hours a day, or any variation of the above, you need to set a target, and sit down to it, without fail.

Over on the blog, each week (roughly) I’ll be reading and reviewing a book, and then giving away my copy to one of my followers ☺️ there’ll be a healthy mix of bestsellers, new releases, older books, popular books, and classics. This will come alongside a couple other changes on the blog. Each week will have a writing advice post, and one or two flash fictions for you to enjoy! This is a decent enough workflow to cater to all my readers, and allows me to work in the background on my own releases, competition/magazine submissions, and a little bit of freelance work here and there! Be sure to head over to gdholdaway.com and subscribe for your chance to win a book each week! And enjoy some flash fiction while you’re there ☺️ #bookstagram #book #booklovers #booklover #bookblogger #reader #readersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writers #writer #blogger #giveaway #weeklygiveaway
What’s more gruelling and exciting than a 30 day challenge? TEN of them at once! Let’s kick off the year with some life changing insanity, daily post updates, and ‘hopefully’ surprising results. Starting 14/01, stay tuned. #challenge #30daychallenge #fitness #health #weightlifting #meditation #wisdom #reading #writing #walking #writer #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #blogger #bloggersofinstagram
Just one aspect of the antics we get up to when I have the kids 😊😊#fatherhood #family #father #daughter #son #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #tattoo
After getting myself bogged down behind what I haven’t yet achieved, I realised last week that I have a lot to be proud of. I’m a hell of a lot closer to those achievements than I was three months ago. I traded out a 3 year lack of writing for setting up a blog that I’ve written a ton of posts for, have picked up some freelancing work, have found a passion for branding and marketing and have some work in that field, and have been enjoying learning and making plans. I’ve come a long way, and I’m happier for it. Actually, I’m proud. So break down those huge goals into something you can start today, and then look back in three months time. You won’t regret it! Shall I write a blog post about this? Let me know down below ;) #productivity #journey #goals #writersofinstagram #writer #writerscommunity #writers #authorsofinstagram #author #successquotes #achieve
This time the cat is actually IN the Christmas tree 😂 How long do you think this tree will stay standing? @ellenjordan_x @toffeeandsmokeo . . . #christmas #christmastree🎄 #writersofig #writersofinstagram #kittensofinstagram #cat #catsofinstagram #catstagram #kittens #kitten #mischief
I love writing flash fictions! Starting this blog has reignited my passion for them. A thousand words or less is enough to transport the reader somewhere else, without having to commit to anymore than five or ten minutes. Navigate to ‘Quick Online Reads’ in the link tree to check out some of mine ☺️ . . . #flashfiction #fiction #shortstory #shortstories #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writer #writerscommunity #writerslife #writers #reader #readersofinstagram #instawriters
Nawww just look at that beauty! What’s a writer without his favourite kittys? @toffeeandsmokeo @ellenjordan_x ☺️#writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #christmasdecor #catsofinstagram #kitten #christmas
Getting into the spirit of things over here ;) I was feeling a little down in the dumps earlier this evening, the total opposite to Christmas cheer. #grinch Once we got the tree up though, and seeing my beautiful cats wow over the baubles, I soon cheered up! Just what I needed to get in the mood for #Christmas 🎄
A sentiment I’m particularly fond of today! #stressed #noisy #opinions
