I'm of the school 'Write what you know.' You can educate yourself, but the best writing usually comes from the heart.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I write about what I know.
Writing is a really good first step toward that goal of knowing yourself.
The best way to learn about writing is to study the work of other writers you admire.
You write about what you know, and you write about what you want to know.
You write about what you know.
Writing teaches writing.
I went to college, but I learned to write by reading - and writing.
In high school, my English teacher Celeste McMenamin introduced me to the great novels and Shakespeare and taught me how to write. Essays, poetry, critical analysis. Writing is a skill that was painful then but a love of mine now.
Reading taught me how to write.
People always say, 'Write what you know', but I've always found that to be terrible advice. It's quite limiting, what you know.
