If you are a beginning or intermediate writer, Ray Bradbury has some great advice for you in this video. It is almost an hour long, but it is worth watching. A nice rant by one of the all-time great writers: Harlan Ellison! What this woman does with sand is breathtaking! Her name is Kseniya Simonova.
