Stephen  King
“If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.”
Stephen King

“I was starting to wonder if I was ready to be a writer, not someone who won prizes, got published and was given the time and space to work, but someone who wrote as a course of life. Maybe writing wouldn't have any rewards. Maybe the salvation I would gain through work would only be emotional and intellectual. Wouldn't that be enough, to be a waitress who found an hour or two hidden in every day to write?”
Ann Patchett, Truth and Beauty: A Friendship

Madeleine L'Engle
“You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.”
Madeleine L'Engle

Scott Adams
“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.”
Scott Adams

Elizabeth Bishop
“Open the book. (The gilt rubs off the edges of the pages and pollinates the fingertips.)”
Elizabeth Bishop
