40 Days of 3 Questions: Day 36

Welcome to 40 Days of 3 Questions!

For the next few weeks, meet here every morning with a notebook or document to answer three questions about writing, about your status quo as a writer, or about the writing life. You can answer briefly and go about your day, or you can use this as a warm up exercise before your regular writing schedule. Whatever works for you, works for me.

Day 36 Questions:

  1. Do you feel like you have to reinvent the wheel every time you begin a story?
  2. What writing lesson have you learned that you never have to relearn?
  3. What writing lesson still gives you trouble?

You may post answers in comments or keep your thoughts private–your choice!

And here is today’s pretty picture:
