· Do you write only for yourself?

· Do you write to your loved ones?

o DO NOT TRY TO PLEASE

Don't write to appeal to readers, but treat yourself; it's the most effective way to reach an audience. Over-play is quickly spotted in theater, cinema, as in writing.

o WORK AND ... REWORK

It is rare to write "good" in the first draft. Proofread, ask yourself questions, and question your work. And of course, take care of the form and be sure to submit a manuscript devoid of spelling errors.
