Words of Wisdom

A poem begins in delight and ends in wisdom.

~Robert Frost (1874-1963)

Favorite Places

There are places that inspire me. Restaurants, churches, parks, and waterfronts are just a few. We all have or know places which get our creative juices flowing. Perhaps it's the comfort we feel. I enjoy sitting in the parks because of the variety of people who come there. Restaurants are great places for the variety of people.

Everybody has something or someone who inspires them What is yours?

Words of Wisdom

Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself. You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms.

~Angela Carter (1940-1992)

MID-WEEK INSPIRATION

Pick out an author that you like then read, study and learn about what makes him/her tick.

Words of Wisdom

Always keep learning, keep discovering, and keep seeking.

Words Of Wisdom

Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts.

~William Strunk, Jr. (1869-1946)
