All advice is autobiographical. A reader tweeted this page from my own book this week:
You’re going to see a lot of stupid stuff out there and you’re going to feel like you need to correct it. One time I was up late on my laptop and my wife yelled at me, “Quit picking fights on Twitter and go make something.”
I still fail at this at least weekly, but to quote Jules Winnfield from Pulp Fiction, “I’m trying Ringo. I’m trying, real hard.”
