“You want to tell a story? Grow a heart. Grow two. Now, with the second heart, smash the first one into bits.” ― Charles Yu, How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe
Writing is like baseball or piano playing. You have to practice if you want to be successful. -Betsy Byars
You don’t have to fight dragons to write books.
You just have to live deeply the life you’ve been given. -Katherine Patterson
The quotes at the top of this page are really speaking to me.
