It can be exciting to push yourself to climb higher, write more, go longer, fight harder. There’s a thrill about setting new records and going beyond what you thought you could do.

Is Said Dead?
The debate that splits the writing community! Some people are passionate about this question and have strong opinions on it. What do I think? Is “said” dead? Should “said” be dead?
