Thanks for this - you're a phenomenal writer. Informative, funny at times, and most importantly vulnerable. Glad to see you're doing well!

- whatrocks 6y agoThanks - I've been reading a lot "about writing" recently, mostly as a distraction from editing my novel about robots and childhood. I think this is a common pattern for struggling writers - "if I just READ about WRITING, then that's almost as good as actually sitting down and DOING THE WORK." All that said, I just finished John McPhee's "Draft No. 4" and highly recommend. McPhee's a master of "creative storytelling" and I tried to incorporate some of his advice into this post (plus some gifs).
