"One hasn't become a writer until one has distilled writing into a habit, and that habit has been forced into an obsession. Writing has to be an ob"When we read, we start at the beginning and continue until we reach the end. When we write, we start in the middle and fight our way out." Vickie Karp "No one is asking, let alone demanding, that you write. The world is not waiting with bated breath for your article or book. Whether or not you get a single word on paper, the sun will rise, the earth will spin, the universe will expand. Writing is forever and always a choice -- your choice." Beth Mende Conny "The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do." Thomas Jefferson "People on the outside think there's something magical about writing, that you go up in the attic at midnight and cast the bones and come down in the morning with a story, but it isn't like that. You sit in back of the typewriter and you work, and that's all there is to it." Harlan Ellison "The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas." Linus Pauling "Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."

You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has got to get down to work." Pearl S. Buck |
