"Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it.
Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window." 
― William Faulkner

"A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading."
