“A writer gets to live yet another life every time he or she creates a new story.”
― Pawan Mishra, On Writing Wonderfully: The Craft of Creative Fiction Writing

“If any writer in this country has collected as fine and passionate a group of readers as I have, they’re fortunate and lucky beyond anyone’s imagination. It remains a shock to me that I’ve had a successful writing career. Not someone like me; Lord, there were too many forces working against me, too many dark currents pushing against me, but it somehow worked. Though I wish I’d written a lot more, been bolder with my talent, more forgiving of my weaknesses, I’ve managed to draw a magic audience into my circle. They come to my signings to tell me stories, their stories. The ones that have hurt them and made their nights long and their lives harder.”
― Pat Conroy, A Lowcountry Heart: Reflections on a Writing Life

“Dreams are good at playing with your memory. They love leaving no trace behind and hate to show up once again in the morning.”
