Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Know or listen to those who know.
Never complain and never explain.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Who seeks shall find.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
I have two ideas for novels at the moment, neither of them all that conventional, but I'm not ready to choose between them yet, let alone settle down to the process of writing.
