How Great Writers Think

Donald Miller

To write well is to spend hours on a paragraph your reader will breeze through in an instant. A good writer will spend a day painting the corner of a billboard just off the shoulder of an interstate. Nobody will ever know if it’s done right. But they will know if it’s wrong. Don’t do it wrong. The great writers stay another hour.
