I Think I've Just Lost Five Pounds

-the Little Things,emma. The Gestures,the Moments. And The Big. I Let Him See My Heart. I Gave It To Him,even When I Believed He Couldn't Or Wouldn't Take It. I Gave It Anyway-a Gift. Even If He Broke It. I Was Very Brave. Love Is Very Brave.

The Most Important Thing Is You Can't Write What You Wouldn't Read For Pleasure. It's A Mistake To Analyze The Market Thinking You Can Write Whatever Is Hot. You Can't Say You're Going To Write Romance When You Don't Even Like It. You Need To Write What You Would Read If You Expect Anybody Else To Read It.

If You Don't Read For Pleasure, You'll Lose Your Edge As A Writer.

Knowledge Is A Great Gift, And The Thirst To Seek It Even Greater. Use What You Know...head And Heart...you Are Not Made To Give Greater Weight To One Than The Other.

Whatever You Remember, Or Feel, You Need To Know That Whatever They Were They Did One Worthwhile Thing In Their Miserable Lives. And That Was You. Whatever They Were, They Couldn't Destroy That. They Couldn't Stop You From Becoming.
