“Write about a terrible experience until you find value in having gone through it. Then you will appreciate every dark hour.”
Jan Marquart, Kate's Way
“When you are trying to find your writing voice don’t try to emulate any writer, not even your favorite. Sit quietly, listen, listen again, then listen some more and write out everything the voice says with no censoring – none – not one word.”
Jan Marquart, The Basket Weaver
“I have never experienced writers block and I've written every day since June 1972. But I have experienced the need to get up and walk around, eat ice cream, let ideas percolate, forget the story for a time, and then return to the page. Even the muse needs a vacation to rest up before she gives more of herself.”
Jan Marquart, The Mindful Writer, Still the Mind, Free the Pen
