Folks, here's a question:
What are the best accounts of MT learning literacy skills and how to be a writer? This might include childhood accounts, but in this case, more likely I think, adolescent to early adult accounts of long hours, perseverence, intense focus, printer's devil tasks, newspaper deadlines & proofing/copy writing & editing, and so on.
Put another way; if one were to argue AGAINST the "born genius" version of MT ("nature"), and suggest otherwise that his skills emerged over time through blood sweat and tears ("nurture") -- which accounts and biographical depictions out there might be used as support?
Thanks for any leads, --Hal B.
