When Crap Is the Best You Can Do

Sometimes, when you feel like your writing is crap, you just have to tell yourself that writing crap is okay and then move on to the next thing. Everybody writes crap, but if you want to be a writer, you have to keep writing anyway.

You start out writing crap and thinking it's good stuff.

"You don't start out writing good stuff. You start out writing crap and thinking it's good stuff, and then gradually you get better at it."
