Today’s Writer Wednesday Guest is my friend Delilah Devlin…

What’s the one thing that remains unchanged during your writing process, from one book to another?  (ie: Intensive plotting?  Music?)

A: I begin every day with a cup of strong, black coffee, incense or a candle burning on my file cabinet, and I write my blog as my “morning pages” to get my mind and fingers going.

What’s the one piece of advice you’d give a new writer?

A: Write. A lot. Submit. A lot. If you get repeated rejections, seek a good critique buddy or group to help you figure out where you’re missing it. Then write some more.

What’s the one piece of advice you wish was wiped from the minds of writers everywhere?

A: That there are hard and fast rules about what you can’t write. Take risks. You’ll be remembered.

What’s the one book you think everybody, writer or not, should read?

A: Stephen King’s On Writing. He can make a book on writing read like the best fiction—and he has solid observations and advice.
