Interview with one of the authors:
Tell us more about your essay in Writers on Writing.
James Everington: My first piece, 'Embrace Your Inner Shitness' is about the freedom in letting yourself go and writing a bad first draft-but a finished one. Because finishing things is key. But then how do you take that mangled, disjointed first draft and make something great from it? I give my perspective. My second piece is called 'Fictional Emotions; Emotional Fictions'. It's a cliche that good writing should evoke an emotional response but what exactly do we mean by that? What different techniques and perspectives can writers use to generate & convey emotion?
Why should authors read Writers on Writing?
James Everington: Because it's a great book to argue with, and that's what you want in a book of writing advice. There's no point in passively learning from one writer about how they write, because what if that doesn't work for you? You want a book with a multitude of voices, clashing complimenting, and contradicting each other. A book you can find your own space within, a book that makes you think about how you write, rather than being told how you should. Come join the conversation.
