The unit of human understanding
is the story
OR:
Ain’t no such thing as “Non-”fiction
James Maskalyk MD FRCP
Can you be a writer?
I don’t know….
Do you like sentences?
Only two rules abide:
1) Ass to chair
❖ try to keep a 1:1 ratio - better for focus
❖ choose the time of day, and duration, like you would any shift and turn all
the“binging” things off
1) Once rule 1 is satisfied, you can only do one of these two things for the
duration:
❖ Write
❖ Stare out the window
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!
You’re making both your parents less proud of you
and less money than you did as a clinical clerk!
Those sentences, though?
Tighter, clearer, more focused. And with these, your
ability to change the lives and minds of others.
Do it.
