Nail Biting

"Work every day. No matter what has happened the day or night before. Get up and bite on the nail."
- Ernest Hemingway


Hemingway's advice is great. Try it. Get up and write every day -- no matter what you did the night before or at what time you went to bed. And don't worry about biting the nail. In time, you'll feel like you've swallowed it whole.
