Truth on the Writer's Life
I read this today. It speaks to me:
"...writers, each of whom braves his or her way onto the blank page day after day, trusting the subconscious, believing in the power of language to lift us out of ourselves, to transform us, to bring us tiding of love, and of great joy." ~Dannye Romine Powell, from her book: Parting the Curtains, interviews with southern writers.

I love that Curtiss Ann. I think all writing is an act of bravery everyday wherein we should have a shield to ward off the subconscious, and a sword to slay the errant word.
