#IWSG Writing Rules

Happy New Year! Time for January's Insecure Writer's Support Group. Join us! Sign up at creator Alex Cavanaugh's website . How's your writing? I decided to re-edit my debut novel, With Good Behavior . It's taking me a long time because it's so bad! Adverb abuse abounds. JANUARY 4TH QUESTION: What writing rule do you wish you’d never heard? Since I got into this writing thing as a lark, I haven't been big on rules. One rule I wish I followed more was to limit adverbs. *see above* But one rule I wish I'd never heard? My day job as a psychologist doesn't leave me the time or energy to write every day, and all this "rule" does is to jack up guilt.  I agree that writing is a muscle--the more we write, the better we get. But we each need to find our own writing schedule. I mostly write on weekends, and that works for me.  Thank you to today's Co-Hosts: Eva @ Lillicasplace Crystal Collier Sheen...
