A writer writes. If you want to be a writer, write.

The point of my maintaining a blog is to get myself moving forward with my thoughts, and flushing out whatever is holding me back.

I remember when I saw George Lucas on 60 minutes or another news magazine show. He had a set schedule during the day where he'd sit at a table and write. He didn't exactly have anything to write, but he still set aside the time and sat there.

My brother, the painter, is like George in that  he still paints on days he's not inspired.
