Top Five: Peter Murphy
Writing-Related Top Five
- If you do not allow yourself to write badly, you will never write well.
- If you ask for criticism on your writing, don’t be upset or defensive if it is critical.
- Inspiration, like puberty, goes away when you reach adulthood.
- Like Voodoo and the Occult, Writer’s Block is only true if you believe in it. If you don’t, it ain’t.
- If you don’t know what to write, keep writing.
