"No tears in the writer, 

No tears in the reader.

No surprise for the writer,

No surprise for the reader."

-Robert Frost

Okay, THIS is my literal motto in writing. 

I honestly plan nothing out when I write. I get an idea. Maybe a beginning and an ending, but never a middle. I create these characters and just start writing with them. Their personalities just sort of become their own. 

I have no idea what's going to happen next half the time- I'm just as surprised as you are.

.......And yes, I may have cried a little while writing something before, but so did the readers so mission accomplished.

USE THIS QUOTE. IT IS ESSENTIAL AND CAN COMPLETELY CHANGE YOUR WRITING.
