Looking at a great story gives you different perspectives depending on where you are in life and what you're thinking about. The best of them--from Shakespeare to LeGuin--are like gemstones. They look differently in the morning sunlight than at midday, but they always gleam.

You are not the same writer you were five years ago or the same one you will be five years from now. That's a good thing! Change is inevitable as you learn and grow and develop your craft. There's always more to think about as a writer.
What makes writing great is it takes us to places we've never experienced before. To flights of fantasy and to the deepest realism, it's there for us as writers and as readers when we want to escape, to learn, to grow. - Wrtr #amwriting Be Writing. #author #writer #writing

'Woke up this morning with a terrific urge to lie in bed all day and read.' Raymond Carver
Every story is a different experience. There's an obvious difference between fiction and non-fiction, or between prose and poetry, but even stories in the same genre with similar plots are going to be slightly different to write. There's always some new challenge.
'Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read!' William Faulkner
