Re: Write what you know?

I love these different ways of thinking about the usual 'write what you know' advice. I've always thought it rather limiting, and not really true anyway because if we wrote what we know it'd be a long list of train commutes and decisions about what to eat next and recaps of 90s TV shows (or is that just me?) I reckon it's more like 'write what you can imagine - and push your imagination to expand'. That's where the curiosity comes in, and Trinja's idea of emotionally connecting with what you know and leaping off from there; and, as Kirsty says, figuring the rest out as you write. Cheers, K
