“There are writers you admire, for the skill or the art, for the inventiveness or for the professionalism of a career well spent. And there are writers-sometimes the same ones, sometimes not-to whom you are powerfully attracted, for reasons that may or may not have to do with literary values. They speak to you, or speak for you, sometimes with a voice that could almost be your own. Often there is one writer in particular who awakens you, who is the teacher they say you will meet when you are ready for the lesson.” WellsMayArtSometimesReasonValuesSpeakVoiceCareersTeacherParticularReadyLessonsSkillsAdmireProfessionalismInventiveness Author:James D.
