"How to Get Some Writing Done: Discipline vs. Enthusiasm"

haha well, basically if you plot my raw daily wordcount against how close my mental health is to catastrophic disintegration, shortly before catastrophe there's a discontinuity where my output crashes instantly to zero, but immediately before that it shoots dizzyingly upward

how does that fit into your grind-hustle Productivity as a Moral Imperative model, Mr. Writing Advice

Basically, if you're in the market for writing advice, one of the best things you can get the hang of is perceiving the poor separation of craft advice from career advice.

Literally all of the career advice is: you know the thing that capitalism will do to you, the relentless extraction that will destroy you, mind, body, health, and will to live? Yeah! Vertically integrate that entire management stack into your habits and grind yourself to dust :)

The fact most craft advice is also bad, or at least not delivered with sufficient honesty about its variable personal applicability, is a whole other thing
