My friends! Today you will write 1000 words. You will sit down at your desk or kitchen table or couch or at the café or the bar or the library or the break room or the park bench or the front seat of your car or wherever it is you go to write and you will pull out your notebook or legal pad or phone or laptop or whatever it is you write on and you will crank up some music or put in some earplugs or switch on an application that will block your internet access or whatever it is you need to do to shut out the noise and you will sit up straight and you will turn your gaze inward and your imagination outward and you will be disciplined and you will be rigorous and you will be determined and you will write. 1000 words. Today.
