I love this Outback Steakhouse take on writing: No Rules, Just "Write"

[@VJIX]

I needed this, thank you :)

I vanlife and so I’m in a different environment all the time, but the one thing I need is quiet. Noise & activity is very distracting. If I can’t find a quiet place, I use noise canceling earbuds and listen to ambient KZbin. Or if it’s just too rowdy (like screaming kids in a hotel or something) I turn into Hulk and rage play video games 😂

That's funny. Writing is what I do when I procrastinate on household chores 😂 but watching KZbin videos on writing is what I do when procrastinating on writing. Guess everyone procrastinates in some way.

sit in the chair & write! ugh! the most toughest part in the entire whole big world.

If only I could look at neurological writing the same way as you did, Josh - I would be writing about special needs advocation everyday - what's stopping me from writing on neurological content is the research that's killing me inside out and I am too perfect when it comes to having my writings flow.

Marcel Proust broke even the first rule and wrote in bed--sure worked for him.
