Episode 70: How to Read Like a Writer

Reading like a writer means you’re a reflective reader, intentionally looking at specific elements as you read, which means you not only read but also think about and study your favorite authors’ writing.

• a simple process for choosing books to read and the steps to take to read like a writer
• an example that walks you through the process
