Elif Shafak Quotes

Why Is It That, In Creative Writing Courses Today, The Very First Thing We Teach Students Is Write What You Know? Perhaps That's Not The Right Way To Start At All. Imaginative Literature Is Not Necessarily About Writing Who We Are Or What We Know Or What Our Identity Is About. We Should Teach Young People And Ourselves To Expand Our Hearts And Write What We Can Feel. We Should Get Out Of Our Cultural Ghetto And Go Visit The Next One And The Next.
