There are three rules for writing the novel. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are. - W. Somerset Maugham.

Classic.

Next best is Neil Simon on writing his next play: "I have all the words picked out. I just have to put them in the right order."

I was going to say, I know what the 3 rules are:
1. Start it.
2. Finish it.
3. Make sure all the words are in the right order.

(In my experience, #2 is the hard one...)

Yeah, #2 is murder.

Just ask George R.R. Martin.

Eh. Just start putting words onto paper and stop when you're done. Simple, right?
