Advice for fledgling authors

ADVICE FOR FLEDGLING AUTHORS: The late Aldous Huxley was often asked by aspiring writers for advice. Once, after reading a manuscript, Huxley gave this advice to its author: "You would do better, I believe, to leave the book for a year or two, forget it, then take it out, read it with new eyes and re-write it" (Times Literary Supplement, January 18).
