On writing

Writing is one of the most powerful inventions. It organizes thoughts, sparks ideas, reveals cracks, and connects us to the past and the future.

“How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live.”

How to write better?

1. Ask questions and set out to answer them
2. Use simple words
3. Write as you speak
4. Less is more, “If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter.”
5. Write a lot and iterate. “The best writing is rewriting.”
