The Four Rules of Writing

One of my absolute favorite authors is Ted Dekker. He writes daring, audacious stories that draw readers closer to their Creator. One of his best novels, Showdown, lays out four rules of writing. I don't know if he thought them up on his own or derived them from some other source, but I think they're brilliant in simplicity and they help me in my writing. Perhaps they'll help other writers out there.

The Four Rules of Writing
1. Write to discover.
2. There is no greater discovery than love.
3. All love leads to the Creator.
4. Write what you will.
