"Lee ampliamente y sin disculpas. Lee lo que quieres leer, no lo que alguien te dice que deberías leer. (Como Hamlet comenta: 'No sé" debería "). Sumérgete en un escritor que amas y lee todo él o ella ha escrito, incluso el trabajo más temprano. Especialmente el trabajo más temprano. Antes de que el gran escritor se volviera grandioso, o incluso bueno, estaba buscando una forma, tratando de adquirir una voz, tal vez como tú ".
"Read widely, and without apology. Read what you want to read, not what someone tells you you should read. (As Hamlet remarks, ‘I know not “should.”’) Immerse yourself in a writer you love, and read everything he or she has written, including the very earliest work. Especially the very earliest work. Before the great writer became great, or even good, he/she was groping for a way, fumbling to acquire a voice, perhaps just like you ".
Joyce Carol Oates (from The Faith of A Writer)
