Quotes for Writers

“If it sounds like writing, I rewrite it. Or, if proper usage gets in the way, it may have to go. I can’t allow what we learned in English composition to disrupt the sound and rhythm of the narrative.” ~Elmore Leonard

Word of the Day

spallspawl A chip, fragment, or flake from a piece of stone or ore.

Favorite Quotes

“When I was in junior high I read a lot of Danielle Steele. So I always assumed that the day I got engaged I'd be naked, covered in rose petals, and sleeping with the brother of the man who'd kidnapped me.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer rips state GOPs: “When you lose an election in a democratic society, you update your party platform. You don’t change the rules to make it harder for opponents to vote.”
