When I put out the call on Twitter for interesting Street VIew uses, a few people suggested using Street View as a setting reference. Whether you're writing a novel set in a real location and need details, or you're recreating art of a type of neighborhood or specific view, Street View imagery can help a lot, even if you've already been there.Clark Snyderhttp://makeitreadright.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917582087359676920.post-84629594852650467262013-12-11T22:39:37.496+00:002013-12-11T22:39:37.496+00:00I love that quote- thank you so much for sharing i...I love that quote- thank you so much for sharing it Clark!

I think you can do no better than Lamott as your coach. <br /><br />I read a comment today from a former writer for Glamour magazine (close enough to blogging, no?) that read, 'I mostly write fiction now. I've gone from writing about what I know to writing about what I want to know.' Seems that twist allowed her creativity to find a voice through fiction. I bet you can find a muse-worthy angle to guide your plume.
