Motivational Monday Quote

I ADMIRE ANYBODY WHO HAS THE GUTS

TO WRITE ANYTHING AT ALL.

(E.B. White)

Writing guts are raw and messy. They're like an open wound, or one whose scab has been picked off, oozing onto the page. Our insides become our outsides - our muscles are in the metaphors, our lungs are in the lilt of a line of poetry, our spines are sunk into the sentences marching across the screen.    

To all my writing friends, be strong and be proud! Writing is not easy, but it is oh so very worth it.
