I think this is one of the simplest and most important lessons an author can learn.

As we understand more about our craft and ourselves,

we grow.

If ever you believe you’ve learned all you need to know

you’ve simply hit writers block and are stuck.

If we don’t challenge ourselves, and in turn our abilities, our writing runs the

risk of becoming formulaic and stagnant.

Don’t let yourself

become

complacent.

Challenge yourself and you will grow.

This is the difference between knowing and understanding.
