The Anti-Self-Help-Creative-Advice Movement

How to Be Useful: A Beginner's Guide to Not Hating WorkSo here we are, blinking in the glare from a whole big, white, empty page of the new year.

Welcome home. I'm currently arranging interviews with two brilliant magazine writers and the editor of an erotic writing anthology--so look for some steamy and super writing advice in 2008.

In the meantime, if you are still grappling with New Years' resolutions, the New York Observer has an article about a new genre aimed straight at people like us, led by writer Megan Hustad.

Join the anti-self-help-creative-advice movement; I'd humbly include our blog in this practical, jaded style of writing guidance. Dig it:

"She found that her friends and acquaintances—a lot of them book editors, journalists, magazine writers and M.F.A. grads—felt the same way: Most of them had never read any success literature and believed the whole genre to be a classless sham designed to prey on the insecurities of the simpleminded and the gullible."
