Introducing “On Good Writing”
This is a conversation on creative writing, hosted by Bret Lott. By sharing the words of writers who have mastered their craft, Bret Lott guides us in the long apprenticeship in the art of writing truthfully of the human condition.
“I could listen to Bret Lott talk about writing all day. I trust his wisdom because of the many years he has put into not only his own craft, but sitting at the feet of writers who came first. It’s like pulling a seat up to a good storyteller in a pub. You never want it to end.”
—Virginia Evans, author, The Correspondent, #1 New York Times Best Seller
