George Saunders on Storytelling
What I love most, I think, about this short video is the way he emphasizes the importance of technicalities and editing in written storytelling. “Revision is a form of active love.” And, “that wasn’t done because I wanted to write a compassionate story… it was done because those sentences were bothering me.”

Rebecca Solnit on hope, failure and storytelling
The title of this article by Rebecca Solnit is “Protest and Persist: Why Giving Up Hope Is Not An Option” but it is also about storytelling. As she puts it, “This work is always, first and last, storytelling work, or what some of my friends call ‘the battle of the story’.
