✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Want to Write? Then, Write!
“If you have that unconquerable urge to write, nothing will stop you from writing.” ~Theodore Dreiser
✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Ever Experience Writer’s Block?
“I know people who have suffered writer’s block, and I don’t think I’ve ever had it. A friend of mine, for three years he couldn’t write. And he said that he thought of stories and he knew the stories, could see the stories completely, but he could never find the door. Somehow that first sentence was never there. And without the door, he couldn’t do the story. I’ve never experienced that. But it’s a chilling thought.” ~ Donald E. Westlake
