What is your Number One writing tip...?

You can't allow your writing to wait for the 'right mood' nor 'inspiration' nor until you have the 'right keyboard'. You must get up in the morning and write. And just as no serious basket-ball athlete would only play in the competition games and no concert pianist would only play in concert you must allow your writing plenty of rehearsal time. Blogging and/or journal writing is an ideal way to do that.
