7 Rules for Writers

Rule #1:
Don't chase publishers who don't chase you

Rule #2:
You don't need a publisher or agent to give you your voice

Rule #3:
Sure it's nice to receive that advanced check and have your name up in lights, but the real money is your market knowin' and feelin' you!

Rule #4:
Good writing is not following standard procedure, but being able to relay your message clearly and profoundly

Rule #5:
Decide whether you want to be a star or a classic, for a star has to keep things Hollywood while classic means transforming people

Rule #6:
A writers' group is not about cocktails and flossin, but workshops and supporting one another

Rule #7:
WRITE!!!
