Writers





�A writer is someone for whom writing is harder than it is for other people.�
- Thomas Mann


"Every person who loves the written word has known a firefly moment. It is the moment at which a single word ignites a sentence or a perfect phrase illuminates a page. The writer who can successfully cultivate the firefly gift eventually will make it to the top. How do the writers bring it off? They look intensely at the world around them and they file away images that may come in handy someday. Go, now, and make fireflies of your own."

- James Kilpatrick

"Books choose their authors; the act of creation is not entirely a rational and conscious one."
- Salman Rushdie
