Writing Quote of the Week
This is what a writer does. You take your precious babies, your life’s dreams, the very best work you can do and you gather it in your hands and hold it out to be admired—and when it’s then slapped out of your hands to the ground and you’re instructed cheerfully to buck up, it just needs a little cleaning…you buck up and get out the scrub brush. Because that’s what being a writer is all about. -Laurie R. King

Writing Quote of the Week
“Every single piece of greatness must go into your current project. Be confident that your well is going to be refilled. Make your book better than you ever thought possible—that’s what it needs to compete. It can’t be good. “Good” gets rejected. Your work has to be the best.” – Jane Friedman
