How And Why To Start A Writing Habit
Even if you’re not trying to be a writer, writing in your spare time can have value. We talk with a professor about how to create a writing habit regardless of what you want to write — fiction, memoir, poetry, journaling — and how it could help all of us figure out what we’re trying to say in our daily lives.
