Writing Habit is Persistence in Practice | Writing Quote by Octavia E. Butler

 First forget inspiration. Habit is more dependable. Habit will sustain you whether you’re inspired or not. Habit will help you finish and polish your stories. Inspiration won’t. Habit is persistence in practice.

-- Octavia E. Butler
