Anyone who thinks that writing is easy has never really sat down and written a story. Sometimes, like most, when I get in a bit of a funk I find quotes from other writers to cheer me up.

We're all in a club, we writers, with one thing in common. We're all crazy in love with writing, which drives us crazy.

I found this quote from Dorothy Parker who lived in the first half of the twentieth century. Every time I read this quote I laugh, because it says it all about our obsession with writing.

"If you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of THE ELEMENTS OF STYLE. The first greatest favor of course, is to shoot them now while they are still happy."

Dorothy Parker

Here I share my favorite pieces from Atticus..

“Dare to believe,

the whisper in your ears,

that you might be special,

that you might be meaningful,

that one day,

you might change the world.

It’s us, you see,

the ones who listen

who will change the everything.”

“We are all earth’s beasts,

living short rebellions of death,

together defying it.”

“We leave behind our unicorns -

the ones that get away -

but they’re never fully gone,

they will always be there,

roaming

in the grassy fields of our soul.”

We're all differnt people throughout our lives, when you think about it. That's okay, that's good. You've got to keep moving. So long as you remember all the people you used to be. -- The Doctor (Matt Smith)

I am DEFINITLY a madman with a box - Matt Smith (The Doctor)

I will always remeber when the doctor was me -The Doctor (Matt Smith)

"The secret of being happy is accepting where you are in life and making the most of every day."
