A post shared advice from Henrik Karlsson regarding writing. His editor (who is also his wife) repeatedly asks, 'Why do you care?' and digs deeper with 'So is that really why you care?' The advice is to discard the original draft and write about that core reason instead, cutting through the superficial layers to find authentic motivation.
