A Conversation with Craig Johnson

A writing tip, book recommendation, and other great insights from David that were not covered in our on-air interview, which you can WATCH or LISTEN to now!

For any aspiring writers out there, would you please share a short bit of writing advice?
You have to be in the room and in the chair or nothing happens. I’m also a big believer in leaving a little water in the well at the end of the day. I also think it’s best to go over what you did yesterday to get started—I can guarantee that as good as you think it is, it needs work.

What is the last book you raved about and what did you love about it?
Willy Vlautin’s The Horse. He’s probably my favorite contemporary writer. It’s a haunting, meditative book with characters that will stay with you long after you put the book down.

What can you tell us about your work-in-progress?
