Being Good and Shortcuts

“If you want to be a writer, you must do two things above all others: read a lot and write a lot. There's no way around these two things that I'm aware of, no shortcut.”
― Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft

I recently read a fantastic blog post from Scott Lynch entitled: Being good can be a shortcut. There is no shortcut to being good.

Give this post a read because he lays out the straight dirt on becoming a better writer. I won't steal his thunder, but, as I said in my previous post, Writing is Hard. But it is so worth it!
