019 - How to Write Like Ray Bradbury

What can Ray Bradbury teach us as writers? Quite a bit, Dan thinks, so in this installment of the program DB gives us a few things to take away from Ray’s life and work that might assist our becoming better writers.

Also, have you ever heard that little voice in your head telling you there’s something wrong in your writing? Dan has that voice and a few more besides. Should we heed these subconscious ramblings? Dan gives his opinion on the matter and also tells us how he pitied the wrong people at a book sale.
