Never, ever give up on yourself!

You don’t write for the editor. You write for you and for your reader.

If nothing else, write for the reader in you!

Never Give Up On Your Dreams

“Dreams never truly die; they just change their appearances.” -a contemplative writer

A Writer Is…

a spinner of words no matter the form.

INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES
