Writing Inspiration Quotes

Writing music is not so much inspiration as hard work Picture Quote #1

Writing a novel is like building a wall brick by brick; only amateurs believe in inspiration Picture Quote #1

I love writing to my little sister. It’s a very nice, easy kind of way I always find inspiration Picture Quote #1

I feel like part of getting better at writing is knowing where to find that inspiration. Right after something happens to me, the first thing I’ll do is go write when those feelings are really, really fresh Picture Quote #1

I take my inspiration for the song writing from little experiences, not even if I’ve experienced them myself but say if something has made me sad, I will use that emotion. I just use everyday life and write about it Picture Quote #1

Well mostly in song writing my experience is that there isn’t so much inspiration as hard work. You sit there for hours, days and weeks with a guitar and piano until something good comes Picture Quote #1

Good writing is more about graft and craft than inspiration and aspiration Picture Quote #1

I find a ton of inspiration from the artists that I’m writing with, that I’m playing shows with, and that I’m sitting down and having coffee with Picture Quote #1

I don’t like re-writing very much. The fourth and the fifth draft - that’s too much like work. There’s not much inspiration about it, and the lawyerly side kicks in - being very careful and somewhat technical Picture Quote #1

Ultimately, I think writing is a mixture of craft, inspiration, and being incredibly, courageously explorative with yourself - and being brutally honest, too Picture Quote #1

The craft of writing is all the stuff that you can learn through school; go to workshops and read books. Learn characterization, plot and dialogue and pacing and word choice and point of view. Then there’s also the art of it which is sort of the unknown, the inspiration, the stuff that is noncerebral Picture Quote #1

To me, writing is much freer than dancing. With writing, you could do it whenever you wanted. You didn’t have to do little exercises and stay in shape. You could have great moments of inspiration that advanced the story. In dance, unless you’re going to choreograph things yourself, you’re at the service of someone else Picture Quote #1

Everyone needs solitude, especially a person who is used to thinking about what she experiences. Solitude is very important in my work as a mode of inspiration, but isolation is not good in this respect. I am not writing poetry about isolation Picture Quote #1

Never stop writing because you have run out of ideas. Fill the lacunae of inspiration by tidily copying out what is already written Picture Quote #1

I've always disliked words like inspiration. Writing is probably like a scientist thinking about some scientific problem, or an engineer about an engineering problem Picture Quote #1

Writing is done by someone. It is not, like some mythical goddess, a skill that springs forth, full grown from the genes of inspiration Picture Quote #1

So, the combination of looking at lots of different people and how they react to each other and how they relate to each other and waiting for that inspiration is the thing that allows me to keep writing Picture Quote #1

I spend a lot of time writing. I get inspiration from texts rather than images Picture Quote #1

Without a doubt my mother was an inspiration for my writing. This is true in many ways, but mostly because she is a wonderful storyteller, without even knowing it Picture Quote #1

Why is it that we understand playing the cello will require work, but we attribute writing to the magic of inspiration? Picture Quote #1

If my writing comes to a halt, I head to the shops: I find them very inspirational. And if I get into real trouble with my plot, I go out for a pizza with my husband Picture Quote #1
