“Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it.

“The Devil may take the reckless, but the good will surely die of boredom. Boredom and frustration.”
― Sarah Dunant, The Birth of Venus

“Hannah's magic cure for every ill," he teased. "Blueberry cake and a kitten.”
― Elizabeth George Speare, The Witch of Blackbird Pond
