I Want My Prose To Be As

I Tell Beginning Readers To Read A Lot And Write A Lot. If You Want To Write A Book, Find A Subject That's Really Worth The Time And Effort You'll Put In.

I Know That To Write You Have To Have Stories You Want To Tell. You Have To Keep Your Mind Alive, And You Have To Work Hard.

You Do The Right Thing Even If It Makes You Feel Bad. The Purpose Of Life Is Not To Be Happy But To Be Worthy Of Happiness.

When Writers Stop Believing In Their Own Stories, Readers Tend To Sense It.

You Can Write About Anything, And If You Write Well Enough, Even The Reader With No Intrinsic Interest In The Subject Will Become Involved.
