Polly Letofsky I am looking forward to reading the Elon Must biography. Also, there's a great story called "When I Grow Up I Want to be a Chair" by Ryan Harbuck. Rave review on the story of her getting in a car accident the night of prom, and became paralyzed from the waist down. The story is how she built her life back up, found love, had a family, great job, then wrote this book about it. Stunningly well written.
Polly Letofsky Back to the Future 1 -- I'd love to go back in time and see if this "progress" was worth the innocence lost.
Polly Letofsky I don't log on here much but I will start doing so once a week. Sorry I missed this question.
Polly Letofsky Hang out with fellow writers. Get comfortable in your own voice -- your very unique, silly-if-it-wants-to-be voice.
Polly Letofsky Once I got past the point where there should be a "right way" and a "wrong way" to write a story, it freed me up to just be myself. If I get too quirky, that's what a good editor is for! It got to be fun to just write and marvel at the words that came off your finger tips.
Polly Letofsky Whenever I get writer's block I go for a walk. (Strange, I know). I don't have music in my ears, no nothin', I just go walk and let my mind wander and do it's thing.
