In a post on Writer Unboxed, Natalie Hart says you shouldn’t wait for the right time to start writing because you might already have everything you need. “It’s easy to focus on what you don’t have enough of – uninterrupted time to write, money for conferences / coaches / editors, friends or family members who get what you do, saleable ideas,” she says. “What if you did something radical and explored the idea that you have what you need to be a writer?”
Hart says it’s enough if you have:
- Imagination
- Curiosity
- Capability
- Humility
- Audacity
- Determination
- Patience
- Insatiability
- Hope
