Post #5 – Memoir and Fiction, Writing Alchemy – Kendra Bonnett and Matilda Butler
Matilda and I continue our series of quick writing tips from well-known authors. I created this latest video after reading Anne Lamott’s Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life. This is a national bestseller…for a good reason. I hope you’ll watch this and all our Writing in Five Quick Tips.
Our Quick Tips offer all matter of tips and advice. We started this series with words from Stephen King and Rita Mae Brown and moved on from there. We went from grammar tips to writing philosophy. The only constant in Writing in Five is that you are getting good writing advice from professional–published authors. Writing in Five is not a How-to series. We’re not giving you simplistic formulae for writing a book. No, we’re focused on the ideas and techniques that the best of the best apply to their own work. That’s because Matilda and I think we can all learn a few things from the likes of Hemingway, Ueland, King, Brown, Lamott and many more.
Anne Lamott tells us to write deeply and with detail, which can result in a whole lot of material, and then provides us a way to cope with the vast task ahead. With Anne as your guide, you’ll believe that you CAN do this. Without further ado:
