writers are weird bc they'll just say things like "I really would like to see what will happen if these two young men are confronted with a reversal of everything they believed"

An interesting read. Not for everyone. So much discussion of the business of writing. So much pencil discussion. Favorite pencils. Different pencils for different moods. Sharpening pencils. How long to use a pencil. Pencil smudge. How to prevent pencil smudging. The callus you get from writing with a pencil. Etc.

I've soaked up so much of this book I started journaling again. With a pencil. A sharp pencil.
