#Wordweavers 12 12. Have you ever wanted to give up writing?
Nope. Sure there have been days (months/years) when I don't write, but I've never thought of those not-writing times as giving up, only...necessary pauses.
What keeps me going is a refusal to beat myself up over metrics like word counts, "daily writing" or speed of draft completion. Words are patient, I have found.
Professional & productive are not synonyms, even if capitalism wants us to believe they are.
