Have more fun.
Now we can discuss the question. It's:
How can I make my writing better?
How can I move ahead when I'm stuck?
How can I decide what to revise first?
How can I come up with a great idea?
How can I take over the world????
HAVE MORE FUN.
If you're having fun, you will write. If you're having fun, people will want to read what you write. If you're having fun, the world will take notice.
The only trick is being honest about what is fun for you. Do you love the sneaky, submerged detail that suddenly surfaces and scares you witless because OMG, he's NOT what he says he is? Do you adore the slow, swoony waltz of a emerging romance? Do you revel in rhythmic jousts of clever word play? Do you thrill to the discovery of the elusive fact? Do you devour lines of poetry like warm bread with strawberry jam?
Do it. Dare to follow the fun today.
Even being MAD can be fun, if you discover how great you are at it.
Every time I see this title face out in a bookstore, I want to stomp my feet for the glee-filled fun of it. I love everything about Mouse was Mad, from the fat, red furious letters and pinkly angry ears of the mouse on the front to the slow-building fury of the perfect prose inside. Just don't tell Mouse I think he's cute when he's mad.
