#authors I just read a story by one of my all time favorite SF writers. I've read most of his books from the 1960s on. This "lost story" from 1956, was published last year.
The story was awful, had nothing at all to recommend it.
I write this to remind new writers. You see, even a giant starts in steps.
And of course this is true for any art. Vincent Van Gogh's early sketches? Frank Lloyd Wright's designs?
You have to start somewhere. Keep on learning, practicing, improving.
