Five Great Quotations about the Writing Process

��There is nothing harder to estimate than a writer's time, nothing harder to keep track of. There are moments��moments of sustained creation��when his time is fairly valuable; and there are hours and hours when a writer's time isn't worth the paper he is not writing anything on.�� - E.B. White

��...almost every author have gone through the terribly uncomfortable period between the time of shedding the seeds of a story and waiting to see it flourish as a published book, spending hours watering and fertilizing it. This is a dreadful period, frustrating and depressing.�� - Ama H. Vanniarachchy

��Swoopers write a story quickly, higgledy-piggledy, crinkum-crankum, any which way. Then they go over it again painstakingly, fixing everything that is just plain awful or doesn��t work. Bashers go one sentence at a time, getting it exactly right before they go on to the next one. When they��re done they��re done.�� - Kurt Vonnegut

��There are two moments worthwhile in writing, the one when you start and the other when you throw it in the waste-paper basket.�� - Samuel Beckett

��Writing a book is a blood sport. If it doesn't hurt when you're done, you're probably doing something wrong.�� - Kevis Hendrickson
