Weekly Writing Tips from George R.R. Martin
Start Small - “These days, I meet far too many young writers who try to start off with a novel right off, or a trilogy, or even a nine-book series. That’s like starting in at rock climbing by tackling Mt. Everest. Short stories help you learn your craft.” — George Martin
Read A Lot - “The most important thing for any aspiring writer, I think, is to read! And not just the sort of thing you’re trying to write, be that fantasy, SF, comic books, whatever. You need to read everything.” — George Martin
Make It Yours - “But don’t write in my universe, or Tolkien’s, or the Marvel universe, or the Star Trek universe, or any other borrowed background. Every writer needs to learn to create his own characters, worlds, and settings. Using someone else’s world is the lazy way out.” — George Martin
Writing Prompt: Have you ever looked back at something you were fearful of in the past, and find it unbelievable (or even funny) that you had that fear?
