Good, uncomplicated advice for fiction writers (from a Dinty W. Moore Facebook post):
"Each story is different, with its own demands, and you write to discover what those demands are, making the mistakes as you go. Usually, you make a lot of mistakes, because no one is ever in total charge of his own consciousness. So you move through it, accepting that it will be confusing, and even intractable for a time -- you go on each day, trying to be concrete, and to couch things in particulars rather than concepts and abstractions, since the abstractions are mostly inert even though people can kill over them." ~ Richard Bausch
