This is something I just wrote in an email to a friend.

Some writers dream about it…while others do it.

What is meant by this statement is that a lot of people dream about writing, think about writing and plan what they are going to write, but they never actually write. And they never finish a manuscript when they start one.

Other people just write. They write everyday. It doesn’t matter if it’s 500 words or 10,000, they write. By doing the work, they will achieve a result.

Which category do you fall into? Are you a dreamer, or a doer?
