Member Spotlight: André Lewis Carter

Why is writing important to you and why do you think it’s an important medium for the world? The act of writing is another way to engage with the world. It’s an exchange of information that could spark a conversation that we should be having today.

What are your tried and tested remedies to cure writer’s block? To just write something, anything to keep exercising the writing muscle. A week later you can revisit to see if there is something you can build on.

What is your favorite time to write? Late morning through late afternoon.

What’s the best piece of writing advice you’ve ever received and would like to impart to other writers? Think about the best place to start your story.

What excites you most about being a writer in today’s age? That people still want to read good stories.
