Standard#stlnano #writingadvice Jim Butcher on what to read if you want to write:
“Things that give you /FEELS/.
Then you go back and you go back and you go back over and over and over again, until you figure out why and how they gave you feels.
Tells you a lot about yourself. Tells you a lot about people. Then you steal the technique and give people feels yourself. 🙂
End of the day, conveying and inspiring emotions in the reader is what makes you a success as a writer. Different people respond to different sorts of things, with different sorts of feels, which is why we have such a huge argument about what is or is not “good writing.” But you really can’t write for a living without being able to bring that emotion into your own work.
To do that, learn from the people who do it to you.”
For those of you who have a finished novel to polish, or want to write and edit one before the end of January.
