Ten Steps To Ruining Your Own Novel #8

Don't get a big head.

You're not curing cancer.


Don't tell people,"I'm writing a novel", cuz maybe you ain't,

and you don't know it.

Don't hang around other people who think they are writing

novels.

Don't tell anyone your plot anymore than you have to.

Don't quit your day job.

And, for Odin's Sake, please don't put it on your resume!



The whole bruhaha in a nutshell: You are nothing but a person

who darkens white (or yellow) sheets of paper.
