Today’s Writing Quote

“Artists don’t talk about art.
Artists talk about work.
If I have anything to say to young writers,
it’s stop thinking of writing as art.
Think of it as work”

— Paddy Chayefsky

Today’s Inspirational Video

As Kid President says, “Be more awesome!”

If you have a writing quote appropriate for pounding out a zero draft, post to Comments, Twitter, or Facebook.

If you have a video to inspire or perhaps give us a laugh, post to Comments, Twitter, or Facebook.

But here’s the biggie: Head to Comments, Twitter, and Facebook to support each other!

How many pages did you write in the last 24 hours? Or if you’re prepping the story, what did you work on? How are you feeling about your story? Are you loving or hating your writing process? Did you have a good day or a bad day? Do you have any questions about your writing process? Ready to give a virtual hug… or maybe you need one.

Comments, Twitter, Facebook. That’s where the Zero Draft Thirty community gathers. Remember: Every day I’ll be handing out the coveted Trumbo Award to the best Comment, Tweet, Photoshop, anything you come up with to get our collective juices going.

And each day in November, I’ll be dishing out a special batch of ZDT-flavored creative juju for everyone who posts.

Nothing else to say. Just. Write.

UPDATE: Some writing advice from a hamster… eating a carrot… while wrapped in a blanket.

As PJ Woodside reminds us, when it comes to writing, we need to remember to knock out pages, “One bite at a time.” For this sage hamster-y advice, today’s Trumbo Award goes to PJ Woodside.

Onward!
