Cory Doctorow about writing

Write every day. Habits are things you get for free, without requiring any special work. Set a daily word target. Make it small. 75 words a day is a novel a year. Finish in the middle of a sentence, so you can type three or four words the next day without having to be “creative.” Don’t get in the habit of only writing when there’s some ritual that’s been satisfied — the right music, a clean apartment, whatever.
