I was just reading an interview with Ernest Cline about his new book "Ready Player Two." He had a great quote that I've found I should probably let others around here read.
Well, I got some good advice from a teacher I had in high school,
who told me that you shouldn't take criticism from anybody
that you wouldn't take advice from.
- Ernest Cline
I think it is pretty good advice and something I should probably take to heart. I never realized it before but I was already doing this subconsciously without having to be told. So when emails come in from other authors I enjoy, I will really pay attention to what they say. Hopefully, they have something really useful to say and so far, I've been extremely lucky on that path.
Okay, back to the writer's room!
