Daily routine for a writer

Keep quick notes of your idea, since they come in the least convenient times like while driving you may need to cary a voice recorder

Take notes of all conversations, shows and books

When pressed on time, write a skeleton chapter and come back later to refine it

I have seen very successful authors writing daily amount as a single chapter, usually couple pages in length

Many podcast authors write 30 minutes worth of audio per week

Remember that “Writing is re-writing” as Mark Twain said.

apt quotation..

“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein (author, aeronautical engineer, and naval officer)
