We all have our favourite piece of advice to give. But do we always remember to take that advice?

Sometimes, we get so frustrated or caught up in what we're writing that we forget our own basics.

If you have a tip that you always recommend writers follow to improve their writing, make sure that you're following your own advice. You never know how an old good habit might elevate your writing.
