Blospiration #16: Writing Rules


Blogspiration is a Brand Spankin' New weekly meme hosted by both GrowingUp YA and Saz101. The meme was created to help spark inspiration among bloggers, readers and writers alike. An inspirational quote/picture/video is posted weekly, on the day of the author's choosing, so that it may inspire creativity, conversation and just a little SOMETHING.

So I saw this poster the other day on the internet. I am going to buy. I think it is the perfect inspirational poster for writers, especially with NaNoWriMo going on. It's called The Only 12 1/2 Writing Rules You'll Ever Need. I actually follow most of these "rules." They have helped me a lot in my writing journey and I know they will keep me focused in the future. (The pic is a bit fuzzy, I couldn't find a bigger one, sorry)


Poster available at All Posters.
Any writers out there utilizing these rules? What does everyone think of the poster?

    This is such a great post for me- I'd feel so incredibly guilty if I wasn't doing NaNo and writing more than I have in a single time since last November! 6, 7, 8 and 9 all basically sum me up- such a great poster! Thanks for sharing!

      I know how you feel. I have not written very much in the past couple months.

    I like that, it's really a good note! And yes, I'm guilty off not writing enough creative stuff atm, too. ~.~

    Those are some great rules to live by. I think the one I have the hardest time with is keeping a steady routine. Especially with all of life's surprises popping up at unexpected moments. This poster is motivating and encouraging. Thanks for sharing!

      I agree, my writing schedule is speratic. It's hard to keep a routine down.

    You know, I once thought it's weird that I am in my most creative writing mind when I am doing the dishes. But really, it's true. I can't stop thinking of all the things I want to write which is funny since my hands are full of.. well, dishes. lol! :)

    Thank you so much for posting this! It's inspiring to me, especially doing NaNoWriMo for the first time ever. I'm gonna keep this next to me as I'm flying through those 50,000 words. :D
