"The clay dries fine and soft, in the late spring and summer. It climbs and billows with the breeze. Raises up in the midday air and spreads out over the whole county like a tent. Whips into small cyclones and settles indoors. The red dust is a given. We don’t fight it the way we used to."

Yes, writers steal from life. Avoid us. When my sister told me the same anecdote for the fourth time in three years, she said: "You should write a story about that!" I replied: "I did. It's in my collection." A book she loved. She didn't recognize herself because I made the character tall.

In fiction I often begin with a character, a being who looks like me but who does something that makes me ask, "Why the hell would anyone do that?" The book is an attempt to solve that mystery. There's no guarantee it will be solved. This rubs some readers the right way and others the wrong way. 🙂

"I don't let any fear of realism get in the way of the idea." -- Nathan Ballingrud, from his interview with Matthew Jackson.
For context, this is when Nathan is talking about how he writes very grounded fantasy fiction, and this is EXACTLY the words I needed to hear right now.
Excellent episode!

True words for writers to live by.
I know many new writers worry about how readers will receive their work. That’s a valid concern! That said, two things:
1. This gig is only worth it if you write what YOU want.
2. Some will hate your stuff, but some will like it. Your readers. They’re awesome. Write for them.
