“The unread story is not a story; it is little black marks on wood pulp. The reader, reading it, makes it live: a live thing, a story.”

“When seriously explored, the short story seems to me the most difficult and disciplining form of prose writing extant. Whatever control and technique I may have I owe entirely to my training in this medium.”

“My short stories are like soft shadows I have set out in the world, faint footprints I have left. I remember exactly where I set down each and every one of them, and how I felt when I did. Short stories are like guideposts to my heart...”

Writing is like working out.
It's hard.
But if you skip a day?
It gets harder.
And every day you skip after that just makes it worse.
So never skip a day.

This is also true of good writing. Don't think about the audience - just execute your vision of your creation.
Think of FIELD OF DREAMS: "If you build it they will come."
Create first. Write first.
If you create it, the audience will come. The right audience.

“Any carefully planned thing destroys the creativity. You can't think your way through a story; you have to live it. So, you don't build a story; you allow it to explode.”

Excellent advice from a wonderful author ~
4 May 2023
Lincoln in the Bardo author George Saunders on how he approaches writing a book:
“Have a plan, but be willing to abandon it.”
He goes on to say that his best ideas come to him not from planning, but from action.

Creative encouragement for the day:
"Without leaps of imagination or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all is a form of planning."
~Gloria Steinem
Embrace your flights of fancy.
Take the leap.
Imagine. Dream.
Believe.
Create.
