Writing With Substance
Ramblings don’t make good writing. Substance is what counts. But, what is writing with a substance?
“The scenes, statements, and dialogues provide the framework for what you are saying.” Nancy Kelton shares. “And… you must say something.”
“You cannot just let off steam. You can’t just whine or kvetch. No one is in the market for your complaints except for psychotherapists.”
— From “Writing from Personal Experience: How to Turn Your Life into Salable Prose” by Nancy Davidoff Kelton
