This video pretty much describes my feeling on the subject.
You can learn all the technical stuff, but if you don’t love your story through and through there’s very little chance that you’re going to stick with it long enough to actually finish writing it. And if you’re bored with it in the first draft, who else is going to be interested enough to finish reading it?
So first and foremost, you must be in love with your story.
After that, it really just falls to what kind of writer, person, personality, worker you are. The little details of How you write are not quite as important as whether or not you Want to write this story.

Great video! Thanks for sharing. It really is all about pushing through those blah moments until you have a breakthrough.

Ugh, yes. Pushing through the “I don’t wannas” is sometimes the hardest part of writing, or indeed anything.
Thanks, and you’re welcome. 😀
