#WritersCoffeeClub 03 : One piece of well-known writing advice you ignore?
"Write what you know".
I've never been in a giant mac mini-shaped time machine, so I have to invent everything about it.
I know that the concept behind that advice isn't that extreme, but I've met a few professional writers that live by that rule. I say that for the things we don't know there's research and imagination. They say I'm an idiot. They're right about that. And I write what I don't know to learn about it…>=)
