A mix of Brain Pickings (easily one of my favourite sites) and Zen Habits this morning.

John Steinbeck’s 6 Tips on Writing is not just for writers, it’s valuable advice for everyone. Likewise, Leo Babauta’s Empty-Handed, Full-Hearted is not just for travellers…

And this tidy collection of creative advice on ‘the 10 things every creator should remember’, from Austin Kleon (with points 3, 7 and 10 the most pertinent to me right now).
