Ghostwriting Scam: We found the bad guys.

Substitute “damn” every time you’re inclined to write “very”; your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.

Mark Twain

Socially, a journalist fits in somewhere between a whore and a bartender. But spiritually he stands beside Galileo. He knows the world is round.

Sherman Reilly Duffy

You may be able to take a break from writing, but you won’t be able to take a break from being a writer.

Stephen Leigh

Anecdotes don’t make good stories. Generally, I dig down underneath them so far that the story that finally comes out is not what people thought their anecdotes were about.

Quentin Tarantino

You can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page.

Jodi Picoult

The character that lasts is an ordinary guy with some extraordinary qualities.

Raymond Chandler

Don’t annoy an author, you’ll end up in their book and you won’t look good.

Lawrence Wray

I have a structured songwriting process. I start with the music and try to come up with musical ideas, then the melody, then the hook, and the lyrics come last.

John Legend

No one can write decently who is distrustful of the reader’s intelligence or whose attitude is patronizing.

E. B. White

If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it’s to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel.

Jim Morrison

A blank piece of paper is God’s way of telling us how hard it to be God.

Sidney Sheldon

Do not place a photograph of your favorite author on your desk, especially if the author is one of the famous ones who committed suicide.

Roddy Doyle

Work on a computer that is disconnected from the Internet.

Zadie Smith
