"If you can tell stories, create characters, devise incidents, and have sincerity and passion, it doesn’t matter a damn how you write."
– Somerset Maugham

– Octavia E. Butler
“Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.”
– Louis L'Amour
"Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass."
– Anton Chekhov
“When your story is ready for rewrite, cut it to the bone. Get rid of every ounce of excess fat. This is going to hurt; revising a story down to the bare essentials is always a little like murdering children, but
it must be done.”
– Stephen King
“I do not over-intellectualise the production process. I try to keep it simple: Tell the damned story.”
– Tom Clancy
“Remember: Plot is no more than footprints left in the snow after your characters have run by on their way to incredible destinations.”
– Ray Bradbury
“It’s none of their business that you have to learn to write. Let them think you were born that way.”
– Ernest Hemingway
“The difference between the almost right word and the right word is … the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.”
