Motivational Quotes for Writers
- 1. 9 Inspirational & Motivational Quotes for Writers By: Francesca StaAna @ www.beafreelancewriter.com
- 2. "I've got a folder full of rejection slips that I keep. Know why? Because those same editors are now calling my agent hoping I'll write a book or novella for them. Things change. A rejection slip today might mean a frantic call to your agent in six months." - MaryJanice Davidson
- 3. "Believe in yourself and in your own voice, because there will be times in this business when you will be the only one who does. Take heart from the knowledge that an author with a strong voice will often have trouble at the start of his or her career because strong, distinctive voices sometimes make editors nervous. But in the end, only the strong survive." - Jayne Ann Krentz
- 4. I learned to produce whether I wanted to or not. It would be easy to say oh, I have writer’s block, oh, I have to wait for my muse. I don’t. Chain that muse to your desk and get the job done. – Barbara Kingsolver
- 5. "Forget all the rules. Forget about being published. Write for yourself and celebrate writing." --Melinda Haynes
- 6. Failure? I never encountered it. All I ever met were temporary setbacks. ~ Dottie Walters
- 7. No one can write decently who is distrustful of the reader’s intelligence or whose attitude is patronizing. - E. B. White
- 8. Almost all good writing begins with terrible first efforts. You need to start somewhere ~Anne Lamott
- 9. "You can approach the act of writing with nervousness, excitement, hopefulness, or even despair—the sense that you can never completely put on the page what’s in your mind and heart. You can come to the act with your fists clenched and your eyes narrowed, ready to kick ass and take down names. You can come to it because you want a girl to marry you or you want to change the world. Come to it any way but lightly. Let me say it again: you must not come lightly to the blank page." - Stephen King
- 10. Inspiration is a guest that does not willingly visit the lazy. ~ Pyotr Tchaikovsky
