I don't suppose you have more specific links to the places where he's talked about this? I'd be interested in reading more.
The suggestion:
> 3) Don’t quit your day job.
Is interested advice. Does he actually have advice for how to do this, and maintain any sort of reasonable writing schedule? I can see the practicality, but the obvious downside is having your time squeezed into smaller and smaller pieces (especially if you're also a parent).
- jasonv 6y agoGet up at 430am. It's possible, even with a baby/toddler. Having read about the habits of writers, a lot of writers limit their "writing" to a few hours/day and spend the rest of their time in the business of being a writer. If you're just starting, you mostly need to do the writing part.
- SiVal 6y agoGetting up at 4:30am is possible if you have a baby? Not only is it possible, in my experience it's inevitable.
- jasonv 6y agoBabies are different of course.. mine slept in a bit longer, but I definitely felt more capable in the all consuming parenting zone if I had a bit of my own locked in, too.
