is to write consistently.  Whether it’s every day, every other day, Tuesdays and Fridays at noon…you must have a time and place to do this.

The experts say write every day…great if you can…sometimes us mere mortals aren’t up for that challenge, fine…

If you show up at a certain time and at a certain place…the muse will eventually know she has a job to do and will show up for work.

If you do this haphazardly…well then so will she.  Give your work and your muse the respect they deserve and treat this like a job.

A job has start times, end times, and location.  Make yours…

then show up for work.

Onward.
