The Writer In Action

Abstract

If much has been written about the artist's tools and next to nothing about the writer's, it is presumably because a painting emerges into the light of day direct from its maker's hands, whereas the written word, if ever it reaches the judgement seat of public opinion, arrives transposed into print; only the completed edifice visible, so to speak, the supporting scaffolding taken down and packed carefully out of sight.
