Determined to take the pieces of my novel “The Pythagorean Concerto” (TPC) and start
\nputting them together. Have not had much success with this to date, and I have been
\nworking on the bloody thing now for well over ten years, since the characters first insinuated
\nthemselves into my waking consciousness.<\/p>\n
I’ve decided to try establishing a morning ritual, getting up a bit early and writing at
\nleast something every single day<\/i>. One thing that Stephen King once recommended
\nis to simply make the time for writing, but not feel like you actually have to write<\/i>.
\nThat takes the “gun” away from your head, so you can relax. Maybe you wont write
\nanything one day, or a single sentence the next. Wait long enough and the flow will
\nhappen (assuming you have anything to say<\/b>).<\/p>\n
