~The Best Place To Start Is At the Beginning.~ ~I've never exactly made a book. It's rather like taking diction. I was given things to say.~ ~There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a computer and bleed.~ ~So tell the negative committee that meets inside your head to sit down and SHUT UP.~ Because writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia.~
~Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel like I should be doing something else.~ ~I write to give myself strength. I write to be the characters I am not. I write to explore all of the things I am afraid of.~ ~If I don't write to empty my mind, I go mad.~Writing is like a contact sport, like football. You can get hurt, but you enjoy it.~
~If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.~ ~The most important things to remember about back story are that (a) everyone has a history and (b) most of it isn't very interesting.~ ~Any word you have to hunt for in the thesaurus is the wrong word. There are /no/ exceptions to this rule.~ |Stopping a piece of work just because it's hard, either emotionally or imaginatively, is a bad idea.Sometimes you need to go on when you don't feel like it, and sometimes you're doing /good/ work when it feels like all you're managing is to shovel shit from a sitting position.|
The above listed are quotes from very inspirational people. The final paragraph is the amazing Stephen King
