Ever read the amazing GEOGRAPHY CLUB? SHADOW WALKERS, DREAMQUEST, LAST CHANCE TEXACO...? Okay, you get it, Brent's written a lot of great books. And he's generously sharing writing tips and more today at

I get asked a lot for advice on how to be a great writer, and I agree with most of the boilerplate advice: read a lot, write a lot, revise a lot.

But the fact is, there are all kinds of things you can do in the theater that will absolutely help your career as a novelist -- things you might not ever learn anywhere else.
