Hello,

I like ER and I watch the old shows when I can and one thing I like to see at the end of the show is the –C- for Consistency, it’s the logo for the production company owned by the author Michael Crichton at http://michaelcrichton.ne, who is the creator of the show. He is consistently writing not just books, screenplays and he even wrote episodes of the show. He consistently writes.

Each time the show ends and I see that confident “C” it's a consistent (I couldn’t help it) reminder how writing unfailingly, as much as possible, all the time, is the only way not just to learn to write well but to succeed at writing. And its not just writing everyday and writing all kinds of works that you enjoy, for instance writing mystery novels but one day writing a short horror story; it’s what I do and I can contest to the fact that over time my writing has improved using this technique and I mean to keep it up to make my writing the best it can be.

I remember reading the earlier fiction by Dr. Keith Ablow at www.keithablow.com and enjoying his work, but as he wrote further stories staring Dr. Clevenger they became better, the writing smoother, more texture to the characters and storylines, I know this may be rare and you have to throw some talent in but only writing and rewriting consistently makes that “some talent” blossom.

So write everyday if you can, write when it’s difficult, when you’re tired and it’s just plain hard to find the right words, it’s the best way, the only way to develop your talent and become the writer you’re meant to be; a great one.

If you have any questions or comments feel free to contact me at:matwrite1@aol.com, I’ll love to hear from you.

Until next time God willing,

Lori
