Simple Sunday- Women Writers

“Writers are not here to conform. We are here to challenge. We’re not here to be comfortable- we’re here, really, to ‘shake things up.’ That’s our job.”- Jeanette Winterson

“Create dangerously, for people who read dangerously. … [Write] knowing in part that no matter how trivial your words may seem, someday, somewhere, someone may risk his or her life to read them.” Edwidge Danticat

‘Settings are obviously important – and as a writer, you have to respect what was real at the time of the story you’re writing. But the real key to success lies in finding the right characters to carry that story.”- Joan Lingard

“Write what should not be forgotten.”- Isabel Allende

Almost Wordless Wednesday- Happy Nano!

A Nano blessing from me to you and some word prompt/inspirational pictures to keep you going.

Now get out there and get those words!

“May your words come easily and with speed. May your writer’s block be as easily dismantled as Legos. May your plot holes be filled with the judicious application of word wars. May the writing dares be plentiful and humorous. May your plot bunnies be tamed by day’s end.”- L. Sieh, 2023 Nanowrimo Blessing
