Thanks, Anne. I remember writing my first book, sitting in the living room, the TV on at the other end of the room, my wife rattling and crashing things in the kitchen, the kids making noise, while I cranked out page after page. I guess I can tune it out or something. .-= jorgekafkazar´s last blog ..Tenirax, Ch V =-.

According to the August 09 issue of AARP magazine, this is Elmore Leonard’s favorite writing rule: “Try to leave out the part that readers tend to skip.”

I suspect E. B. White would like that one, too.
