Five Things Writers Do
1. Writers write.
2. Writers revise.
3. Writers read.
4. Writers write more.
5. Writers revise more.
Bonus Tip: Writers professionally accept critique from editors. It doesn’t mean you can never question it, but editors are doing their best to keep you from looking stupid. They are not your enemies. They are your friends. Treat them with respect.
