RT @padresj@twitter.com: There is a very important corollary to this:

"Not EVERYTHING that is first met with ridicule will be game changing"

In other words, be passionate, persistent and brave...

... but ALWAYS BE LISTENING! (And be ready to learn/adjust when merited)

@cambridgeport90 Oh man did I need this.

Writing a novella that may break some rules and conventions.
@cambridgeport90 I met this one guy that likes to hammer down rules for writing fiction that go beyond just ... basic grammar. The irony of it for every rule he makes, I've found at least one exception.

@LWFlouisa but fiction is imaginative. I mean, certain genres, I can understand why they would need to be rules, but not for the most part. And, it's even cooler when you actually mix genres together.

@cambridgeport90 Yea, for example I combine realistic fiction (in the original sense, not hard scifi) and a magical realism approach to scifi.
