Don't censor yourself
"Don't censor yourself. Don't chase trends. Write whatever is in your heart. If it's honest, you will find an audience."
Be Authentically Yourself
"I wrote the kind of book I want to read. I was as authentically myself as I could be. That's tougher than some people would think."
Write What You Need to Write
"Write what you want to write. Write what you need to write. Write what engages you, what interests you, what gets your blood pumping and your jaw tight. Because what else are you going to do? Platy it safe? Write what everybody else is writing just because everybody else is writing it? What's the point? Why bring nothing new to the table? Why fail to bring yourself and your passions to the page?"
Tell the Right Stories for You
"It's something you have to learn, how to tell the right stories for you, and it's this completely ineffable thing."
