Do you promise if i spend 30 min of every day in this year at

I promise

i became an avid reader three months ago...

I promise nothing, you lazy hack.

>>8927306
You've either got it or don't, you robot.

>>8927306
You should probably also spend at least that amount of time reading quality content. But yes.

>>8927306
Writing more is the only way to get better. However if you dont have a very solid foundation of the history of literature your writing will probably end up trite or some gradient of masturbation.

>>8927306
At the very least, you would cease being a hack.

No of course not you fucking degenerate

You could practice 10,000 hours and still not write a line of good prose worth reading

Some people have what it takes, most people don't

Even most of those that have what it takes are wasting their effort.

Stop doing cocaine.

You could be come a better talentless hack...

Not that being a talentless hack is that bad, there's plenty of them who are top selling authors.

My advice: take real events, and turn them into modern fiction stories with all the elements that people like in tv shows and stuff, then write a book about it and pass it off as non-fiction still. Works bonkers for some people.

I've written 200 words a day since December 28th, and i'm slowly working my way to a consistent 1,000 words a day.

oh

I only promise that you might suck less.

If you can't do things for yourself you'll never be anything.

If you don't write because you like to write and do it often you will never write anything.

You just like the "idea" of being a writer.

THAT is pretension; have you ever told people you were an aspiring writer in order to impress them, in the hopes that at some point you'd get round to writing something - anything?
