“The Writing Life,” Anne Dillard: Read this and tell me if you think it’s funny. “Write as if you were dying. At the same time, assume you write for an audience consisting solely of terminal patients. That is, after all, the case. What would you begin writing if you knew you would die soon? What could you say to a dying person that would not enrage by its triviality?” If you just burst out laughing, you may be a writer. This book is full of gems like that, and I laughed out loud in the way one might while driving off a cliff. You know, in the good way? #bookstagram #annedillard #writing #reading #literature #bookshelf #bookworm https://www.instagram.com/p/B0w3gNZhRg9/?igshid=k6p1fuhdqodf
