“Don't Write What You Know; Write What You Care About -- Passionately!!”
“Write about what you don't know about what you know.”
“You don't write what you know you write to find out what you don't know”
“I really want to be a writer but I don't know what to write about""You could write about us”
“People say to write about what you know. I'm here to tell you, no one wants to read that, cos you don't know anything. So write about something you don't know. And don't be scared, ever.”
“When it comes to people--don't write about who you know, but what you know of human nature.”
