Good morning!
Even the biggies don't know exactly how they do what they do.
"Over the years I have written a great many stories and I still don't know how to go about it except to write it and take my chances. If there is a magic in story writing, and I am convinced there is, no one has ever been able to reduce it to a recipe that can be passed from one person to another. The formula seems to lie solely in the aching urge of the writer to convey something he feels important to the reader. If the writer has that urge, he may sometimes, but by no means always, find the way to do it." John Steinbeck in On Being A Writer, edited by Bill Strickland
Yours MADly,
Mary Ann
