For the Writer...

Say what you see and get on with the story - Stephen King           I try to leave out the parts that people skip. ~Elmore Leonard                There's nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein. ~Walter Wellesley "Red" Smith              I'm not a very good writer, but I'm an excellent rewriter. ~James Michener                   Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart. ~William Wordsworth                  I don't consider myself an author, I'm a storyteller ~ Ted Dekker                 The role of a writer is not to say what we all can say, but what we are unable to say.  ~Anaïs Nin                 Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia.  ~E.L. Doctorow                  Substitute "damn" every time you're inclined to write "very;" your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.  ~Mark Twain                 The wastebasket is a writer's best friend.  ~Isaac Bashevis Singer            Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass.  ~Anton Chekhov            Easy reading is damn hard writing.  ~Nathaniel Hawthorne                  Metaphors have a way of holding the most truth in the least space.  ~Orson Scott Card                A metaphor is like a simile.  ~Author Unknown                 The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.  ~Mark Twain                A writer is someone who can make a riddle out of an answer.  ~Karl Kraus                If my doctor told me I had only six minutes to live, I wouldn't brood.  I'd type a little faster.  ~Isaac Asimov                  Writing is easy:  All you do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.  ~Gene Fowler                 Be obscure clearly.  ~E.B. White                 Being an author is like being in charge of your own personal insane asylum.  ~Graycie Harmon                 Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show.  - Charles Dickens
