And there never was an apple, in Adam's opinion, that wasn't worth the trouble you got into for eating it.

The biggest pitfall to avoid is not writing. Not writing is really, really easy to do, especially if you're a young writer. The hope that elves will come in the night and finish it for you, is a very common one to have. That is my main recommendation - you have to write, and you have to finish what you write and beyond that, it's all detail.

Be hole, be dust, be dream, be wind/Be night, be dark, be wish, be mind,/Now slip, now slide, now move unseen,/Above, beneath, betwixt, between.

People can get involved in wonderfully creative ways that have nothing to do with you, but spark off things you begin with.

People think dreams aren't real just because they aren't made of matter, of particles. Dreams are real. But they are made of viewpoints, of images, of memories and puns and lost hopes.

People pursue things. As soon as they have them they run away from them.

This is how you do it: you sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until its done. It's that easy, and that hard.
