Some more writing tips.

I believe the bottom line for good writers is observation; of life and of nature.
That woman on the bench over there; what do you see in her face and the way she moves her hands? Do you see fear, concern, preoccupation? Her behaviour could trigger a scene or a story for you.
Do you know that no two people recall events alike? Test your friends. In some cases they cannot remember an event that was significant to you. This situation was the focal point of one of my short stories. It calls into question the very heart of historical record.
There is a point! What truths does a writer address, if any?
In general, most artists have a purpose, beyond their work, in putting their art forward. This purpose ranges from a simple observation of truth or truths to an arrant didactic view. Sorry, I used long words! The didactic artists, like George Bernard Shaw, use their work to preach certain beliefs to an audience; beliefs they wish their audience to adopt.
We are back to the artist as visionary and prophet. I have no doubt that most artists want their audience to see a different world; a world that they see as the truth.
Let us keep in mind that truth is a relative quality. One person's truth is not the truth of another. Under such conditions, truth is an ambivalent quality and never absolute. We hold truth in reverence in our modern society, but it has so many guises, many of them false.
Essentially, you should work with your truth to bring it forward. For you to do so, your truth should be honest and without any stain of personal obsession or gain.
Good luck in your work,
Roger W. Harrington.
