There’s nothing quite like author procrastination. I myself feel like I’ve mastered the art 😉

11. Wait until you get shipwrecked and stranded on an uninhabited island.

The shipwreck will add fuel to the fire of your story, and the uninhabited island will provide you with the perfect, distraction-free ambience for unleashing your creativity and penning down your thoughts.

12. To increase the likelihood of the above condition:

Never ever set sail until World War III breaks out, or an asteroid strikes the Earth, or some other cataclysmic event shakes up the planet.

Otherwise, you'll just have a mundane experience of safely reaching your destination with an unremarkable story that"ll certainly be appreciated by your pet dog or cat.
