For today’s inspiration, I’d like to share a quote from one of my favorite authors and teachers, Ralph Fletcher.
“It’s misleading to think of writers as special creatures, word sorcerers who possess some sort of magical knowledge hidden from everyone else. Writers are ordinary people who like to write. They feel the urge to write, and they scratch that itch every chance they get.”
Ralph Fletcher
So, scratch that itch today! Your fellow slicers can’t wait to see what you craft.

Terje – tried to comment within your site, but an error occurred. I too mourn the loss of independent books stores! The photo of your store looked so clean, and neat, and inviting.
