The brilliant and underappreciated David Rakoff died yesterday. I really think he'll be remembered as one of the greatest essayists of a generation. Go pick up some of his work, if you haven't read him before; Don't Get Too Comfortable is my personal favorite.
Here's a video of him speaking in 2011 about why writing never gets easier. (Language NSFW.)
Wow...absolute genius. I'm going to believe that there is a reason I am seeing this for the first time today. :) Thanks for sharing. A sad loss, indeed.
