10 writing tips

Interesting take on "how to be a writer" from Writingforhire.blogspot.com:

Tips 1-3:

1. Get a job and keep it.  This "job" won't be writing, probably; it'll be counting things or working a register or mulching pear trees or sweeping floors in bowling alleys or delivering pizzas or teaching 6th graders or working in a snotty atheletic shop or cutting meat at Whole Foods or something.  Keep this job: it's the job that pays rent or mortgage, bills, you know.

2. Write.

3. Submit your work.
