e.g. Building on MSU campus: "Bacteriology" - not a thing anymore. And not what's in that building anymore either.

When I was young, I won a poetry contest with this and got to meet John Updike. I still remember it. SpringSoundSong A frog grass green croaks. Crocus sprout spurts of purple. People play, blue breeze in their hair. So Spring splashes the air in song.

Both redirect our attention to everyday rather than literary writing as central to what the practice of it is.

Scott's are great. Two more in the category of "books that get folks new to writing studies excited about writing..." are www.amazon.com/Writing-Came... and www.routledge.com/What-Writing...

A few upsides... 1) It's easier to get better with just a little more effort for those early in a learning journey. 2) The greatest resource for learners looking to get betters is another learner to calibrate with, not someone who will do the work for them.

Being done vs. being better is one of the key struggles in a pedagogy emphasizing formative feedback. It's always easier and less valuable to be done. It's hard to get better.

Strongly recommend getting hobbies and then turning those into jobs with deadlines and performances and stress.
