As Summer Gives Way to Autumn, Time to Get Serious

'If one waits for the right time to come before writing, the right time never comes.'
--James Russell Lowell

'Never talk about a story idea at a party. Either you'll spend your enthusiasm for the story, or you'll have to leave the party to write it.'
--Paul Raymond Martin

'Writing is finally a series of permissions you give yourself to be expressive in certain ways. To invent. To leap. To fly. To fall.'
--Susan Sontag
