A huge part of writing is making the idea your own.

Do you want to write about vampires?! THEN FOR GOD’S SAKE, WRITE ABOUT VAMPIRES!

Oh, dystopian futures are overused? PUT YOUR OWN SPIN ON IT!

Guys, don’t let people stomp on your ideas. A story is a bunch of puzzle pieces that everyone has access to - but it’s your choice how you put them together. How you put it together and how you present it makes that idea uniquely yours, even if it’s a familiar concept.

Your idea isn’t lame.

Own it.

And when you’ve spent enough hard work on your idea, it’s entirely possible that your idea will be better than all the ones that came before.

We’ll never know until you write it.

If you’re scared that you’ll spend a lot of effort on an idea and it won’t be any better…?

Welcome! You’re now suffering the same uncertainty that every writer ever born deals with, every day.

There’s no guarantee that you’ll win. But unless you start making the attempt, it’s guaranteed that you never will.

Putt your butt in the chair, start working, and begin the daily challenge of taking the same gamble that all of the rest of us take, every day.
