Writing your own blog platform is like roasting your own coffee: it’s impractical and you probably shouldn’t do it, but for people who really, truly care about it, it’s worthwhile to them for their own personal priorities that sound crazy to everyone else. Well, I write my own blog platform and I roast my own coffee (Writing Quotes)
Writing to me is a voyage, an odyssey, a discovery, because I’m never certain of precisely what I will find (Writing Quotes)
Poetry is a rhythmical piece of writing that leaves the reader feeling that life is a little richer than before, a little more full of wonder, beauty, or just plain delight (Writing Quotes)
Most writing is done between the mind and the hand, not between the hand and the page (Writing Quotes)
The mystique and the false glamour of the writing profession grow partly out of a mistaken belief that people who can express profound ideas and emotions have ideas and emotions more profound than the rest of us. It isn’t so. The ability to express is a special gift with a special craft to support it and is spread fairly equally among the profound, the shallow, and the mediocre (Writing Quotes)

In writing the book, I am living. I am growing. I am tapping myself. I am changing. The process is the product (Writing Quotes)
If a man means his writing seriously, he must mean to write well. But how can he write well until he learns to see what he has written badly. His progress toward good writing and his recognition of bad writing are bound to unfold at something like the same rate (Writing Quotes)

It doesn’t stop there (Writing Quotes)
