Amateurs know that contributing something is better than contributing nothing.

If I'd waited to know who I was or what I was about before I started "being creative," well, I'd still be sitting around trying to figure myself out instead of making things. In my experience, it's in the act of making things and doing our work that we figure out who we are.

The only way to find your voice is to use it

The best way to get started on the path of sharing your work is to think about what you want to learn, and make a commitment to learning it in front of others.

In the end, creativity isn’t just the things we choose to put in, it’s the things we choose to leave out.

Don't think of your website as a self-promotion machine, think of it as a self-invention machine.

The best advice is not to write what you know, it's to write what you like. Write the kind of story you like best - write the story you want to read. The same principle applies to your life and your career.
