I know it's cliche but do you recommend any stories that taught you something about writing? If you haven't read it, read "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" (1938) by Hemingway. There are some interesting lines on writing and not writing. Some of it kind of reminds me of the letter years before it that Hemingway wrote to his "bo" Fitzgerald for him to write the stories he had instead of seething about his life.

>He had found that out but he would never write that, now, either. No, he would not write that, although it was well worth writing.
