Quotables: Every Writer Does Well

Every writer does well to step away from the desk at regular intervals, to confront life where it is most tangible, most urgent: not on the page, but out in the world. . . . it is only what you see, what you hear, what strikes you as important and significant, that you can write about. . . . That is the clay with which we make our sculptures, the notes available to play our music. ~ Dinty W. Moore, The Mindful Writer
