“Banning books gives us silence when we need speech. It closes our ears when we need to listen. It makes us blind when we need sight.”

iosonorockmaballoiltango:

La poesia attraversa la terra in solitudine,

appoggia la sua voce sul dolore del mondo

e niente chiede

– nemmeno parole.

Arriva da lontano e senza orario, non avverte mai;

ha la chiave della porta.

Poi apre la sua mano e ci offre

un fiore o un ciottolo, qualcosa di segreto,

ma tanto intenso che il cuore palpita

troppo veloce. E ci svegliamo.


Eugenio Montejo

Writing tip #1: Write every day

sixwordssayitall:

Just keep writing. Just keep writing. Just keep writing, writing, writing.

This may seem obvious, but it cannot be stated enough. Practice is important and should not be underestimated. After all, writing is a skill like anything else, so practice is necessary for improvement. I’m guilty of not sticking to this (although I am getting better), and I notice a difference in my writing. When you consistently practice, the quality of your writing improves, you develop flow, an...
