Writing: Assuming you understand the core principles of writing and the basics of grammar, what determines your ability to write well more than anything else is writing a lot. Once you reach the threshold of writing a decent sentence, the thing that leads to success is writing more.

A life, teeming with creation, not wanting to be confined to Just The One Thing, no matter how good you are at it, no matter how easily it comes to you or how much people want you to keep doing it.

Criticism, to me, is ultimately a practice of paying attention.
