    Okay, Twitter, considering the Bad Takes this week, I want to hear the WORST writing advice you've ever been given.

        Some gems I've heard: "No one will buy a book without a romance." "If you don't love writing every day, you should quit." "A good writer's work is written in blood/stone." "A good editor won't ask for too much."

        "Don't give your story rules, because then you'll have to follow them." "You will only get a book deal if you know the right people/go to conferences/publish a lot of short fiction." "All good artists suffer."

        (I once had an author show me her manuscript, point out how few notes there were from her editor and say, unironically, "That's how I know they're good. Because they know I'm good.")

        “Don’t reread your work until you finish drafting the whole thing” is the worst possible advice EVER

        So glad you said this. I sometimes get a bit stuck on rereading, but also really helps me understand my characters and where the story is going

        “You have to write a ton of short stories before you’ll be skilled enough to write a novel.” 😕 ...I don’t enjoy writing short stories, and it’s a totally different process.

        IT'S SOOO DIFFERENT! I'm a short-story writer, trying to write a novel this year and my dozens of short stories ain't making it any easier.
