"Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven on by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand."
-George Orwell

"It ain't whatcha write, it's the way atcha write it."
-Jack Kerouac, WD

Be courageous and try to write in a way that scares you a little
-Holley Berth
