  1. I bet “write a dozen different endings, until you got it right” is one of a kind advice every young writer need to get to know how to polish his/her work. Following these rules teaches willfulness and persistence a writer needs to perfect a story and successfully present it to readers. That’s a hard work most young writers that came out of blogging do not understand.
