Keep a small can of WD-40 on your desk — away from any open flames — to remind yourself that if you don’t write daily, you will get rusty.

George Singleton

Thank your readers and the critics who praise you, and then ignore them. Write for the most intelligent, wittiest, wisest audience in the universe: Write to please yourself.

Harlan Ellison

To me, movies and music go hand in hand. When I’m writing a script, one of the first things I do is find the music I’m going to play for the opening sequence.

Quentin Tarantino

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

The road to ignorance is paved with good editors.

George Bernard Shaw

It’s an accepted fact that all writers are crazy; even the normal ones are weird.

William Goldman

You can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page.

Jodi Picoult

A writer is a world trapped in a person.

Victor Hugo

If you have an idea that you genuinely think is good, don’t let some idiot talk you out of it.

Stan Lee

Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don’t feel I should be doing something else.

Gloria Steinem

Critics are people who sit on the mountaintop and look down on the battlefield. When the fighting is finished, they take it upon themselves to come down from the mountain and shoot the survivors.

Robert Altman

Anecdotes don’t make good stories. Generally, I dig down underneath them so far that the story that finally comes out is not what people thought their anecdotes were about.

Alice Munro

I get up in the morning, torture a typewriter until it screams, then stop.

Clarence Budington Kelland

The first chapter sells the book; the last chapter sells the next book.

Mickey Spillane

Writers aren’t people exactly. Or, if they’re any good, they’re a whole lot of people trying so hard to be one person.

F. Scott Fitzgerald

Stories are never too long or too short. They’re too interesting or too boring.

William Shawn

It always comes down to characters, and individual stories about courage.

Steven Bochco

Read a thousand books and your words will flow like a river.

Lisa See

Books aren’t written, they’re rewritten. Including your own. It is one of the hardest things to accept, especially after the seventh rewrite hasn’t quite done it.

Michael Crichton

Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of, but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.

Robert A. Heinlein
