MQD – Loving Your Writing! Part 3

I love writing. I love the swirl and swing of words as they tangle with human emotions.
{James Michener}

Writing what you love is one of the best ways to write something someone else will love.
{John Scalzi}

Great thoughts always come from the heart.
{Marquis de Vauvenargues}

Love the writing, love the writing, love the writing…the rest will follow.
{Jane Yolen}

Writing is like sex. First you do it for love, then you do it for your friends, and then you do it for money.
{Virginia Woolf}

Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.
{William Wordsworth}

I want to gather up all the ink cartridges in the universe, because somewhere, mixed in with all that ink, is the next great American novel. And I’d love nothing more than to drink it.
{Jarod Kintz}

Dear Writer,
Please do me right now. On the kitchen table. In your bed. On the couch. Hell, I’ll even take the floor in front of the TV, I don’t care. I just need you to do me like I’ve never been done before.
Sincerely, Your Writing

Happy Monday and happy writing, Zigzaggers!!!
