You can't just write. You can't just tell yourself you're going to write a book or a short story, or something profound, without real experiences. You have you live poor for a while, you have to hurt, like you really have to hurt in order to write anything good. That's the biggest misconception, so many people, including myself, just want to write something from the top of their head. But its all been done before and better.
