It depends on the writer. For Stephen King, a writing schedule works best when it&#8217;s frequent and structured. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>James Joyce was a famously slow writer. There\u2019s a (possibly apocryphal) story about him moaning to a friend that he\u2019d only written seven words that day\u2014and he didn\u2019t know what order they went in! Harper Lee wrote only one book, <em>To Kill a Mockingbird<\/em>\u2014King wonders how she spent her time and why she didn\u2019t do more with her talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, prolific writers, naturally, write a lot. Anthony Trollope, producer of tomes like the 848-page <em>Can You Forgive Her?<\/em>, wrote for two and a half hours every morning before he went to his day job in the postal service. English writer John Creasey wrote 600 novels under 28 pseudonyms in his lifetime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>King is famously prolific, which isn\u2019t a surprise given his personal working schedule. Stephen King&#8217;s writing habits have helped him reach this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/levels-of-success\/\">level of success<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>He writes ten pages a day, or 2,000 words.<\/strong> Every three months he produces about 900 pages, a good-sized novel.<\/li><li>He dedicates his morning to writing time. He doesn\u2019t move on to his errands and reading until he finishes his writing goal.<\/li><li>He writes every day of the year, even holidays. He doesn\u2019t like taking a break from a story once he starts, otherwise it starts feeling cold and he loses the rhythm of the story.<\/li><li>He believes a first draft of a book shouldn\u2019t take more than three months, or else the story starts feeling foreign.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to Write<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your writing location should be a dedicated place where you block out the rest of the world, because you\u2019re creating your own world. This is how Stephen King&#8217;s writing schedule works. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most likely, you\u2019ll work best in a place that\u2019s yours, not a coffee shop or a park bench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eliminate all distractions possible<\/strong>\u2014your phone, the view out the window, alarms. Shut your door so people know not to disturb you. This doesn\u2019t have to mean silence\u2014King listens to loud hard rock while writing, but his music is another way of blocking out the rest of the world. Stephen King&#8217;s writing habits depend on his process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Get Started<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re a new writer, it\u2019s asking too much to adopt Stephen King&#8217;s writing habits. Here\u2019s how he suggests you get started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Set a habit: define your writing location and carve out a daily time when you\u2019ll be writing.&nbsp;<\/li><li>During that time, shut your door.<\/li><li>Set your daily goal low and achievable. He suggests 1,000 words a day. Until you meet this goal, your door stays shut.<\/li><li>Take no more than one day off a week.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Don\u2019t Wait for a Muse<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some writers wait for inspiration to strike from the heavens, and in its absence they putter about not producing any work. This is not how you get better. Stephen King says a writing schedule is a better bet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>King says his muse isn\u2019t an angel who bestows wonderful ideas with a wand; his muse is a gruff, surly guy living in the basement who wants to see labor before he awards inspiration. Your muse <em>will <\/em>visit, but you need to have an \u201cOpen for business\u201d sign on your door. The best way to show this is to write.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The hardest time during writing is usually at the beginning. Once you start, it gets better.<\/strong> For Stephen King, a writing schedule helped him stay consistent and improve. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Does Stephen King have a writing schedule?
