I agree with this wholeheartedly: if someone “wants to be a writer” the best thing they can do is read and experience life until they understand something so well they don’t want to do it anymore.
Then maybe they can write about it.
What we have instead is people selected for syntax, network, and ego, vomiting as loudly and often as possible.
