I still remember when he came to talk at the fiction writing class I was in, and I can’t forget this thing he said:
“You’re good enough to be a great writer, and you’re good enough to be a great editor, but you’re not good enough to edit your work while you’re writing it.”
He then basically told us to just let everything come out without worrying, and only later go back to fix it with a clearer head. RIP.

So what was everyone into back when you were a kid/YA—like super nerd mode or just grabbing books for fun? And what series?
I’m from Clah, and I honestly would’ve loved to be a dimensional traveler… the whole demon vibe. And yeah, I also kinda wanted to be a Son of Barabas or know my way around Sinanju.
