"It looks like demands and deadlines are forcing me to temporarily give this book up. I know where they keep it in the Statesboro Library, but if a cheap copy comes my way I’ll just grab it. If the rent crisis doesn’t get me first." Mar 26, 2023 02:26PM

James M. Cain
“You have to wait for your mind to catch up with whatever it is it’s working on; then you can write a novel.”
James M. Cain

George   Johnston
“Everyone gets to the stage, or should get to it, where it's more important to stop doing things than to keep on trying to do them.”
George Johnston, Clean Straw for Nothing

“If your writing doesn't keep you up at night, it won't keep anyone else up either”
James M. Cain

Maxim Gorky
“Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.”
Maxim Gorky, The Lower Depths and Other Plays

Howard Bryant
“The main reason I don’t like it is that the commodification of Memorial Day and events like NFL’s Salute to Service month . . . capitalizes on a new strain of ‘patriotism,’” Doolittle said. “In America today, we display patriotism through the lens of militarism and war and pass it off as support for the troops. It can smell a lot like nationalism. We’ll buy a hat with a camo logo of our favorite team and wear it proudly, a way to show support for our team and our armed forces. There’s more to patriotism than standing for the anthem and wearing red, white, and blue or camo-themed garb, but this new kind of American patriotism gets exploited in the name of capitalism, and days like Memorial Day lose some of their meaning.”
Howard Bryant, The Heritage: Black Athletes, a Divided America, and the Politics of Patriotism
