When I look carefully at all of the successful authors I admire, I see a variety of techniques, skills, habits, strengths, and weaknesses.

Some write in the morning, some in the evening. Some write daily, some in blocks of time. Some are plotters, some are pantsers. Some write only in one genre, some in several.

But they all have one thing in common: they are workhorses.

They produce, they complete, they put out work, and they are consistent.

And for me—to be successful as a writer—this is what I need to emulate.
