Words from the Wise: Ian McEwan's Writing Process

It's been a while since I've posted one of these videos, but there are times when we writers need a little inspiration to add brilliance to whatever project we're working on, and if brilliance can't be achieved, I know I'd gladly settle simply for getting whatever work done that currently sits on my plate.

So, to that end, take heart and inspiration from one of the world's great writers, Ian McEwan. While we can't all match his prose, we can perhaps use his daily writing rituals as a guide to follow. (One thing he does that I wish I could do is shut off his Web and email access--oh that must be nice!)
