I actually walk around thinking, but the gist remains true for me. That percentage? I’m not certain. It might be a little higher.

Right on!
Margaret Said
I think this sentiment distills the essence of writing down to the basics. Just keep going past doubts, hopes, and word counts until you’ve found the beginning and the end.
Madeleine Said
Exactly how I often feel.
Somerset Said
This is one of my favorite quotes about novel writing.
Wally Said
I hold to Wally’s words, but they trouble me. I write for myself, so the book has an audience. I’d like my novels to have more than an audience of one.

Ray Said It
Saw this today in passing and love the sentiment. I feel this way, that without writing, reality would reduce me to a blithering idiot (yeah, just stop what you’re thinking right now). I feel that I’m addicted to writing, but that’s okay; I feed it, and it feeds me.
To paraphrase Ray, time again to write like crazy, and get high on words and ideas.
