Only Lies Offend Me, Never Honest Counsel.

If I Die, I Die Friendless And Abandoned. What Choice Did That Leave Him, But To Live?

Sacrifice Is Never Easy Or It Is No True Sacrifice. - Stannis

The Best Writing Advice I Had Was [in] ‘heinlein’s Rules For Writers’ By (american Science Fiction Author) Robert A. Heinlein. His First Rule Is That You Must Write, And I Was Already Doing That, But His Second Rule Is, ‘you Must Finish What You Write,’ And That Had A Big Impact On Me.

I Had These Cheap Alien Toys And I Made Up Stories For Them. They Were Space Pirates. They Didn’t Have Names So I Made Up Names. These Were The First Stories I Wrote. Even As A Little Kid I Was Thinking About Torture.

I Would Also Suggest That Any Aspiring Writer Begin With Short Stories. These Days, I Meet Far Too Many Young Writers Who Try To Start Off With A Novel Right Off, Or A Trilogy, Or Even A Nine-book Series. That's Like Starting In At Rock Climbing By Tackling Mt. Everest. Short Stories Help You Learn Your Craft.
