Description

Book Preview: #1 Good writing is about telling the truth. We are a species that needs and wants to understand who we are. We have so much we want to say and figure out. But writing about these things is often difficult and uncomfortable. Start by writing down your childhood memories as truthfully as you can.

#2 If you are able to, try to recall your life as it was. Write down everything you can remember about every birthday or Christmas or Seder or Easter or whatever, and describe the trench coats and stoles and car coats.

#3 You must sit down and start writing. It may be difficult to overcome your own fears and insecurities, but you must try. The process is the same for almost everyone I know: it feels like you have to keep getting out of your own way so that whatever wants to be written can use you to write it.

#4 The secret to becoming a better writer is to focus on writing itself. You will not be able to become a better reader if you don’t write better stories.
