No story this week guys. This doesn’t mean I’ve abandoned the art of fiction. On the contrary I spent this weekend editing two flash fiction stories that I’ll try and publish on some other online outlets. I’ve spent this week reading Sol Stein’s Stein on Writing to get new insights into the craft. Writing fiction week by week is great, but to get better I need an infusion of new ideas — or as my old writing instructor at USC used to say a “confluence of influence.” I’ve got a second book I’m going to read called Bird by Bird. I’ll try and have something for next week. Maybe I’ll post a review of Stein on Writing which might be useful to you.
