Writing

The Key

I’ve posted before about how I wish my writing was better.

It’s generally true that I’m never actually happy with anything I’ve written. Whether or not I actually know how to fix it is something entirely different. Usually it’s just a matter of diction and sentence structure conspiring to make my thoughts look awkard and clunky on paper.

But good writing isn’t just about looking pretty. More and more I’m convinced that good writing is the art of doing someone else’s thinking for them.
