      1/ Friend tells me about a bad author who writes crappy game tie in novels. Wikipedia: > he also writes and publishes an online newsletter...of tips, tricks, and tidbits about fiction writing (focusing on, but not limited to, science fiction and fantasy).

      2/ Almost no excellent authors write books or newsletters, or offer courses on how to write. Many bad ones do. This is a bit of a mystery.

      3/ I could imagine Dunning Krueger. Lack of ability to discern the difference between one's own garbage and good writing might motivate both publishing crap, and the idea "I'm great at this; I should share my secrets!"

          Nancy Kress and Walter Jon Williams run the Taos Toolbox and I think they are both very good writers. G.R.R.M teaches there also but I actually have never read him.

          I've read at least 20 times his "How to write fantasy and fiction" and it completely shifted the way I read everything. Very sound and practical advices. Also, a lot of references of SF/Fantasy writers.

          WRT to your thread about the Hugos, he wrote that one of the first things an aspiring writer should do is do its homework aka Read the Classics of the genre, giving multiple lists of different waves of SF/Fantasy and saying: pick a book of some names in each list and read them.
