Maybe I'll go for a long walk, listen to music, do mindless coloring of mandalas, or bead some jewelry.

Ernest Hemingway
“It's none of their business that you have to learn how to write. Let them think you were born that way.”
Ernest Hemingway

Sinclair Lewis
“It is impossible to discourage the real writers - they don't give a damn what you say, they're going to write.”
Sinclair Lewis

Junot Díaz
“You see, in my view a writer is a writer not because she writes well and easily, because she has amazing talent, because everything she does is golden. In my view a writer is a writer because even when there is no hope, even when nothing you do shows any sign of promise, you keep writing anyway."

[Becoming a Writer/ The List, O Magazine, November 2009]”
Junot Diaz

E.B. White
“A writer who waits for ideal conditions under which to work will die without putting a word to paper.”
E.B. White

Harper Lee
“I would advise anyone who aspires to a writing career that before developing his talent he would be wise to develop a thick hide."

[Writer's Digest, September 1961]”
