Every now and then I read an article like this Time to Write? Go Outside that gives advice on where or how to write and it makes me think again about the many pieces of advice I’ve heard from authors over the last five years. Sometimes I imagine that if I put them all together, they would immediately contradict each other so thoroughly that no one would bother listening to practitioners again. Other times, I think I see a theme in the advice I’ve heard: practice stay in the chair, keep writing and kill your critic.
