You’re writing a book, and of course you want to finish it.  Here’s what ensures that you’ll do that: write every day.

In The Wait of the World’s on Dan Brown – WSJ.com bestselling author Dan Brown is quoted on his working habits:

“… ‘For me, writing is a discipline, much like playing a musical instrument; it requires constant practice and honing of skills. For this reason, I write seven days a week. So, my routine begins at around 4:00 AM every morning, when there are no distractions.'”

Writing your book every day: tips to help
