Not since I got Tiffany Yates Martins book, Intuitive Editing, on audible have I found a more useful writing aid.
Vonnegut was a founding teacher at the Iowa Creative Writing course. I've always thought that vaunted course a bit over rated. I imagined every morning an attendant having to go around and pull students head out of their navals lest they disappear altogether. But Vonnegut was one of the first teachers and those must have been the Wonder Years that made its reputation. Since he learned his craft writing for magazines he states unequivocally-as a writer your job is entertainer. If yu want to be published. That was drummed into him by magazine editors. Yes you have to say something meaningful, tap into some truth that resonates-but if you don't entertain while yu do that no one will read you.
