Writer’s Quote Wednesday

I am participating in  Writer’s Quote Wednesday, a collaboration between Ronovan Writes and SilverThreading.com also on twitter  #BeWow

1. “It begins with a character, usually, and once he stands up on his feet and begins to move, all I can do is trot along behind him with a paper and pencil trying to keep up long enough to put down what he says and does”.

– William Faulkner

2. “The author must keep his mouth shut when his work starts to speak”.

– Frederich Nietzsche

3. “A person who publishes a book willfully appears before the populace with his pants down…If it is a good book nothing can hurt him. If it is a bad book, nothing can help him”.

– Edna St. Vincent Milla

This one made me laugh out loud while being more that a little scary.
