In this encore edition of Doing What Works I tell you how I wrote my second book, why I didn’t want to, and why I’m glad I did. Here are your show notes… Left for Dead: A Second Life after Vietnam is the memoir of Jon Hovde. Staying the Course: A Runner’s Toughest Race is the memoir of Dick Beardsley. Platoon helped me get in the mood to write Left for Dead. There’s a difference between a story and a sequence of events; the writers of South Park know! There’s no such thing as writer’s block. The Summer of Ordinary Ways “wrings intensity,” as one person put it, “from the seemingly mundane.”
