Questions

I would like to ask Hilton Als:

1. How do you come up with the ideas or the themes for your writing. Since there are so many topics that were mentioned and written about in one way or another in various publications, how do you work on your writing to make it stand out? To make it necessary to be heard and read?

2. How did the new digital era change your skills and approach to writing. Do you think it made it easier to search for information through multiple search engines and academic archives, or back in the days when writers had to physically search for their information, the work was done more efficiently?

3. Which advice from your own experience would you give to the beginners?
