Steven Pressfield

But like we were talking about, if an idea comes to me, then I grab my phone and I dictate that.

And let me say one thing here for anybody that's listening to this and would want to be writers, aspiring writers.

So I'm a full time writer.

I don't have another job.

I don't have to do anything.

But yet I can only get two hours of time basically in the day.

So if you guys have a full time job and kids and a family and a wife or spouse, whatever, if you can squeeze out a couple of hours a day, you're doing you're on the same level with me.

Same level with a full-time writer so that it is possible to have a full-time job and still do your artistic thing to a full tilt version.

It is.

I think it's really important.

And when life was more predictable for me, I would always do it.

But like since the fires and other things like that, sometimes I have to shift time frames around and be ready to do that, you know.

I have a good friend, Jack Carr, the thriller writer who did The Terminal List.

And he's a master of writing in airplanes and writing at Starbucks because he's always traveling and doing all kinds of stuff and just finding the time.

God bless him.

I don't know how he does it.

And he is incredibly productive.

I don't know if I could do that.

Maybe I will shift from writing from 11 to 1 to writing from 1 to 3, but that's about the most variance I can put into it.

Not at all.
