The Ordinary Is The Divine.

I Wanted To Use What I Was, To Be What I Was Born To Be - Not To Have A 'career', But To Be That Straightforward Obvious Unmistakable Animal, A Writer.

Very Bright Teeth As Big And Orderly As Piano Keys.

In Real Life Wishing, Divorced From Willing, Is Sterile And Begets Nothing.

In Saying What Is Obvious, Never Choose Cunning. Yelling Works Better.

No One Can Teach Writing, But Classes May Stimulate The Urge To Write. If You Are Born A Writer, You Will Inevitably And Helplessly Write. A Born Writer Has Self-knowledge. Read, Read, Read. And If You Are A Fiction Writer, Dont Confine Yourself To Reading Fiction. Every Writer Is First A Wide Reader.
