Motivational Quotes
Writing
This is the challenge of writing. You have to be very emotionally engaged in what youÆre doing, or it comes out flat. You canÆt fake your way through this.

Best Quotes about Writing
All a good letter has to do is make you feel special.
Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka and Toshihiro Kawabata
I love being a writer. What I can't stand is the paperwork.
Peter De Vries
I think people want their illusions and writers are mostly illusion. When you read their words, you read a flattened, incomplete version of the writer.
Real Live Preacher
Thus, in a real sense, I am constantly writing autobiography, but I have to turn it into fiction in order to give it credibility.
Katherine Paterson
I have made this [letter] longer, because I have not had the time to make it shorter.
Blaise Pascal
You must not come lightly to the blank page.
Stephen King
Writing well mean never having to say,'I guess you had to be there.'
Jef Mallett
Keep writing. Keep doing it and doing it. Even in the moments when it's so hurtful to think about writing.
Heather Armstrong
Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of, but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.
Robert Heinlein
She was discovering once again that reading and writing were not the same-you couldn't just soak it up then squeeze it out again.
David Nicholls
I was working on the proof of one of my poems all the morning, and took out a comma. In the afternoon I put it back again.
Oscar Wilde
If the weak hand, that has recorded this tale, has, by its scenes, beguiled the mourner of one hour of sorrow, or, by its moral, taught him to sustain it - the effort, however humble, has not been vain, nor is the writer unrewarded.
Ann Radcliffe
Say all you have to say in the fewest possible words, or your reader will be sure to skip them; and in the plainest possible words or he will certainly misunderstand them.
John Ruskin
You can approach the act of writing with nervousness, excitement, hopefulness, or even despairûthe sense that you can never completely put on the page whatÆs in your mind and heart. You can come to the act with your fists clenched and your eyes narrowed, ready to kick ass and take down names. You can come to it because you want a girl to marry you or because you want to change the world. Come to it any way but lightly. Let me say it again: you must not come lightly to the blank page.
Stephen King
I believe more in the scissors than I do in the pencil.
Truman Capote
Write something to suit yourself and many people will like it; write something to suit everybody and scarcely anyone will care for it.
Jesse Stuart
The cure for writer's cramp is writer's block.
Inigo DeLeon
People do tell a writer things that they don't tell others. I don't know why, unless it is that having read one or two of his books they feel on peculiarly intimate terms with him; or it may be that they dramatize themselves and, seeing themselves as it were as characters in a novel, are ready to be as open with him as they imagine the characters of his invention are.
W. Somerset Maugham
Not every story has explosions and car chases. That's why they have nudity and espionage.
Bill Barnes and Gene Ambaum
If you don't have the time to read, you don't have the time or the tools to write.
Stephen King
Typos are very important to all written form. It gives the reader something to look for so they aren't distracted by the total lack of content in your writing.
Randy K. Milholland
A writer is a writer not because she writes well and easily, because she has amazing talent, because everything she does is golden. In my view, a writer is a writer because even when there is no hope, even when nothing you do shows any sign of promise, you keep writing anyway.
Junot Diaz
Vigorous writing is concise.
William Strunk Jr.
A classic is classic not because it conforms to certain structural rules, or fits certain definitions (of which its author had quite probably never heard). It is classic because of a certain eternal and irrepressible freshness.
Edith Wharton
I have never thought of writing as hard work, but I have worked hard to find a voice.
Randy Pausch
Maybe that's just what happens; you start out wanting to change the world through language, and end up thinking it's enough to tell a few jokes.
David Nicholls
Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say'infinitely'when you mean'very'; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite.
C. S. Lewis
There are a lot of people who can't write and maybe shouldn't write.
Sarah Hepola
The first step in blogging is not writing them but reading them.
Jeff Jarvis
Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
C. S. Lewis
The best way to become acquainted with a subject is to write a book about it.
Benjamin Disraeli
If any man wish to write in a clear style, let him be first clear in his thoughts; and if any would write in a noble style, let him first possess a noble soul.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
No letter from a lover is ever more welcome, brings more joy, than a publisher's expression of interest does to a new author!
Judith Brocklehurst
It took me fifteen years to discover that I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up because by that time I was too famous.
Robert Benchley
About the most originality that any writer can hope to achieve honestly is to steal with good judgment.
Josh Billings
It's not enough to create magic. You have to create a price for magic, too. You have to create rules.
Eric A. Burns
This is the challenge of writing. You have to be very emotionally engaged in what youÆre doing, or it comes out flat. You canÆt fake your way through this.
Real Live Preacher
No passion in the world is equal to the passion to alter someone else's draft.
H. G. Wells
When you write things down, they sometimes take you places you hadn't planned.
Melanie Benjamin
You have to know how to accept rejection and reject acceptance.
Ray Bradbury
An author is a fool who, not content with boring those he lives with, insists on boring future generations.
Charles de Montesquieu
There is only one way to defeat the enemy, and that is to write as well as one can. The best argument is an undeniably good book.
Saul Bellow
Be generous, be delicate, and always pursue the prize.
Henry James
Writers should be read, but neither seen nor heard.
Daphne du Maurier
Detail makes the difference between boring and terrific writing. ItÆs the difference between a pencil sketch and a lush oil painting. As a writer, words are your paint. Use all the colors.
Rhys Alexander
We do not write because we want to; we write because we have to.
W. Somerset Maugham
I always wrote with the idea that what I put out there is going to stay there. Once I publish something, it has been published. I've never deleted more than one or two posts from my site. I don't think that there are takebacks. I don't feel right about it.
Alison Headley
The way you define yourself as a writer is that you write every time you have a free minute. If you didn't behave that way you would never do anything.
John Irving
Even writers need relief from words.
Sarah Vowell
The only thing I was fit for was to be a writer, and this notion rested solely on my suspicion that I would never be fit for real work, and that writing didn't require any.
Russell Baker
