I love to start my day with a little writing.

I usually do my morning writing by hand, in a spiral notebook.

And I have dozens and dozens of notebooks, all filled with little stories, articles, and even ideas for stories that I have written down over the years during my morning writing sessions.

If you don’t have a morning writing routine, I encourage you to start one.

It will help you become a better writer.
