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

 notwithstanding

 

The hyperlink

might be prefaced

by an annoying
