501 - Patterns of Success

John and Craig reflect on the traits they’ve noticed in successful writing careers. Should you write everyday? Do you have to be good in a room? Is it more important to be original or flexible? We also follow up on genres, typos and address a listener question on harassment. In our bonus segment for premium members, we discuss our preferences in books from paper to bindings to jackets. No shock: we have opinions.
