Every Sunday, I choose a passage of wisdom from someone who knows better and much more than I do about writing, life, the universe and/or everything.
Share and enjoy!
It can also happen that the author will kill himself or herself writing. The only book that is worth writing is the one we don’t have the courage or strength to write.
