Quote of the Day

September 10, 2019

Read Carefully

September 10, 2019/ Jon Winokur

My approach to teaching writing is to teach reading -- how to read a text and how to read one's own text, from the point of view of an artist, to really try to take apart what happens, sentence by sentence by sentence, you just need to read very carefully, and with a different kind of hat on.
