Don't write because you want more money. There are a thousands way to make money quicker than being a writer. Write because you have a story to tell, because you have a dream you know will change the world. Write because you believe this is your purpose, because it's your dream.

[Alexander Pennington @Authoralexp]

Before you give up on writing because you don't think that you're good enough, just remember that every author you loved started in the same place as you. We all feel like giving up, no one is naturally amazing at writing. But if you just keep writing, you will succeed.

I don’t know who needs to hear this— but it’s okay to DNF a book. I promise. Life is short and we’re not in high school and no one is forcing you to slog through something you don’t enjoy. There is no merit page for powering through.
