...on writing...
"You are unsure, as any good writer should be on the verge of stepping into storyland. When a writer is sure, spontaneity is squelched, dreaming abandoned, the life of the story exchanged for a shadow."My Writer Friend: Rachelle of Inspiring Daring
I love the quotes and pictures from this post!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love all these quotes! I am so honored and absolutely floored that you count my words to be among these most famous writers.
ReplyDeleteI felt this strange urging to visit "Daughter of the King" today. Imagine my dispay when I couldn't find it among the blogs that I follow in my reader. Immediately amended that upon arriving here.
ReplyDeleteI adore your new design. Especially the feathery-theme. :) I *still* think about that devo you wrote for She Speaks and generously let me read.
My jaw dropped open when I saw that you had quoted little old me! My word! (Literally, lol). I echo Annie above. Honored. Floored. Blessed.
My sister is a writer.. I will have to pass these on to her!!!
ReplyDeleteI love these pictures!
