If Literary Advice For Fiction Writers Were A Train Ride ...

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The first station would be
write what you know
then onward the train
will go
 
Other stops will have
much wisdom
to show
and make your words 
glow
 
But the biggest sin
is to avoid
discipline

:::
:::
 
Fret not the limits
of your knowledge
with or without
the institution
or college
 
There is still the tracks
to Grand Central Station
if you know best
your heart and
imagination

I am eternally grateful to
ThriftBooks.com
and my stimulus checks
 
I will have completed
Mr. King's book
On Writing
by Tuesday
 
Having read
and thoroughly enjoyed
a half dozen
of his novels,
I strongly doubt
I will ever read another
 
Re-reading Delores Clairborne
