Zitat des Tages von Chevy Stevens:
I didn't go to university or get a degree, but I hired somebody as a mentor - and that I considered my university education.
For 'Never Knowing,' I outlined it and then blocked it out on my office wall with index cards, but things still happened organically.
Unfortunately, there's still a lot of beginning writers who think you can just write your first draft and hand it in.
In this day and age, you can write anywhere in the world. You can really live anywhere and have the same career.
Some newer writers worry about books set in Canada having a big appeal, but it has never been an issue for me. I haven't wanted to write in the States because I don't know the States.
It's not like I wake up every morning and just can't wait to write. It is my job. It's much easier to not write. I'd rather read. This is my income. This is what supports my family. Having a child is a pretty big incentive to keep working.
Pain leaves a mark, the degree depending on the person and the event.
