“Whenever I encounter writer’s block, I stop writing … with my hands; and I then start writing with my legs.”
Mokokoma Mokhonoana

Naveed Saleh
“Style and voice are different. Style is standard conventions of writing; voice is the distinct way an individual puts words together. All good writers have a near-uniform understanding of style, but a voice all their own.”
Naveed Saleh, The Complete Guide to Article Writing: How to Write Successful Articles for Online and Print Markets
