Description
SOME ADVICE FOR NEW WRITERS: I believe a person is behooved to help pass success on to those who follow. So, after writing the same answers, over and over, to many letters I received from would-be writers, I decided to put it all together here. Call it a small trove of advice. Mine it for whatever wisdom you may find.
"Art may be essential and deeply human, but it ain't rare. What's rare is honesty. A willingness to look past all the fancy things we want to believe, peering instead at what may actually be true."
"Progress gives...and it takes away. A more open and educated and richer society can allow ever-larger fractions of the popularity to have hobbies in the arts. Hobbies that enrich lives. But the best hobbyists want more. To move into professional status. As I did in 1980 with my first novel."
