“What I like in a good author is not what he says, but what he whispers.” Logan Pearsall Smith

Writing feels like a sliver of silver moon that sheds light on what the dark tries to hide. within the world and within ourselves. Things may still be hazy, but never again invisible. — Photo by Pat Bean .
Doing That Writing Thing
I write because to not write is to not breathe. I think I’m not alone in how I feel. .
“It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? For the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop.” This quote by Vita Sackville-West is my very favorite writing quote.
Why do you write, and what’s your favorite writing quote?
Brilliance love that quote
I write because I am a story teller and there millions of stories that need to be told.
Great motive Andrew. So keep on keeping on.
I write because I have to share the stories. So many stories, so little time. But I must try.
There are lots of great quotes, but my favorite has to be E.L. Doctorow: “Writing a novel is like driving a car at night. You can see only as far as the headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.”
