Here are some great quotes about writing:
Everywhere I go I’m asked if I think the university stifles writers. My opinion is that they don’t stifle enough of them. There’s many a best-seller that could have been prevented by a good teacher.–Flannery O’Connor
So often is the virgin sheet of paper more real than what one has to say, and so often one regrets having marred it.–Harold Acton
I try to leave out the parts that people skip.–Elmore Leonard

If I took Elmore Leonard’s advice, I wouldn’t write at all. Or is that the point?
LOL–I don’t think anyone is skipping through your writing. If they are, then they are missing out. 🙂
