1. Serve the work:
Allow the thing to grow into what it wants to become. You’re stepping into mystery. It wants to go someplace — serve it.

2. Serve the audience:
Art is not self-indulgence. It becomes generative when it’s an act of love. You must intend good for your audience.
3. Selectivity:
The work is more important than your feelings. Learn to see what the audience needs to hear. Cut everything else.

4. Discipline:
This is not your novel, it’s your first novel. The process is iterative.
