„The whole point of good literature is to make newness durable. You are creating alternative time. You are making vivid that which did not exist before.“ Colum McCann, Letters to a Young Writer
Letters to a Young Writer by author Colum McCann comprises fifty-two short texts that give some practical and philosophical advice about various matters of authorship – like creating characters, developing a plot, the terror of the white page, the first line and many more. For me, each of the small texts was highly motivating and full of inspirational lines, which I would like to write down on a BIG mood board and hang it up above my favorite place to write (so currently this would be above my sofa).
A big recommendation for everyone who is loving the written word but also fighting with it from time to time.
I wish you a wonderful week! Have a creative one :)!
