I hope you have a happy and safe holiday season and thanks for the quotes. :)
ReplyDeleteAre you off on a seasonal holiday?
ReplyDeleteHave a happy one! I like the quotes, but think the best thing a writer can do is to be true to oneself.
Love the Steinbeck guote, because everytime I write, I feel like I don't know what I'm doing, but just taking a chance. =D
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays!

ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the Hemingway quote. Mind if I snatch it? It's soooo perfect! BTW: What is that pic of -- the tiny word processor? It's too cute. I have an Alphasmart NEO and I love it, but that pic got me curious. So now I gotta know! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a happy New Year!!
Hi Paisley:
ReplyDeleteI have an Alphie NEO too (Santa just brought it this Xmas); the pic is just from a search for pics of word processors. Don't worry, Alpies rule!
Wow! Excellent quotes!
ReplyDeleteI have just heard about the Alphasmart NEO, and here it is pictured on your blog! It seems like an amazing device. Did you purchase yours in Toronto?
ReplyDeleteThanks
