This is absolutely a priceless clip of the late, great Donald Graves talking about how to start writing. Enjoy.
"OK, Don, how do you create a class of writers?"
"Well the first thing you do is you write yourself. When you sit down to teach the class, you write yourself. What do you write about? You write about the first thing that comes to mind..."

I was there for Donald Graves' last appearance at the NCTE in Pittsburg a few years ago. He always reminds me of the Angel Clarence from "It's A Wonderful Life." He was marvelous.
