Video: Ghostwriting reviews from clients about our ghostwriter services.

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

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

Jodi Picoult

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

A blank piece of paper is God’s way of telling us how hard it to be God.

Sidney Sheldon

I’m writing a book. I’ve got the page numbers done.

Stephen Wright

The road to ignorance is paved with good editors.

George Bernard Shaw

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 have a structured songwriting process. I start with the music and try to come up with musical ideas, then the melody, then the hook, and the lyrics come last.

John Legend

If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it’s to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel.

Jim Morrison

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

Mickey Spillane

Biography should be written by an acute enemy.

Arthur Balfour

A writer is a world trapped in a person.

Victor Hugo

It is perfectly okay to write garbage — as long as you edit brilliantly.

C. J. Cherryh

Plot is, I think, the good writer’s last resort and the dullard’s first choice.

Stephen King

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

William Shawn

Writing a novel is like driving a car at night. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.

E. L. Doctorow

Do not place a photograph of your favorite author on your desk, especially if the author is one of the famous ones who committed suicide.

Roddy Doyle

The character that lasts is an ordinary guy with some extraordinary qualities.

Raymond Chandler

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

Gloria Steinem

Ever heard of a carpenter not going to work because he has “carpenter’s block”? If a writer can’t write, it’s because he doesn’t really want to, he isn’t ready to get it on paper or he’s just plain lazy.
