Weekly Quotes
●"One thing that helps is to give myself permission to write badly. I tell myself that I’m going to do my five or 10 pages no matter what, and that I can always tear them up the following morning if I want. I’ll have lost nothing—writing and tearing up five pages would leave me no further behind than if I took the day off.” __ Lawrence Block, Writers Digest June 1981

● “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”
__ L. M. Montgomery
