Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning.  – Maya Angelou

Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don’t feel I should be doing something else.

Gloria Steinem 

First, forget inspiration.  Habit is more dependable.  Habit will sustain you whether you’re inspired or not. Habit will help you finish and polish your stories. Inspiration won’t.  Habit is persistence in practice.   -Octavia E. Butler
