R. Gestetner on How to Become an Author of Good Sefarim (15 Adar Sheni)

שו"ת להורות נתן י"א:צ"ג 15 Adar Sheni 5757 (1997)

R. Natan Gestetner was bothered by the phenomenon of young Torah scholars publishing collections of halachot, without proper editorial insight or input. He outlines how one becomes the kind of Torah scholar who is worthy of publishing sefarim, whether books of novel ideas or judicious collections of prior authors' insights.
