Out of Neil Gaiman’s eight rules of writing, the third one was the most important and the one that applied to me the most. “Finish what you’re writing, Whatever you have to do to finish it, finish it.” If I get stuck while writing, whatever it is that I am writing will stop. I’ll leave it, forget about it, and never finish the piece. It is important to finish. When you start writing, the idea that’s in your head inspires you to begin. That is something that should not be ignored and you owe it to yourself to complete the story no matter what. This is something that I have failed to do and that’s what made the third rule stood out to me.
