Video: Writer for you! Let a professional ghostwriter help.

Have something to say, and say it as clearly as you can. That is the only secret.

Matthew Arnold

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

Lisa See

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

Everybody walks past a thousand story ideas every day. The good writers are the ones who see five or six of them. Most people don’t see any.

Orson Scott Card

Editor: A person employed by a newspaper, whose business it is to separate the wheat from the chaff, and to see that the chaff is printed.

Elbert Hubbard

What I loved most about calling myself a reporter was that it gave me an excuse to show up anyplace.

Truman Capote Quote

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.

If you haven’t got an idea, start a story anyway. You can always throw it away, and maybe by the time you get to the fourth page you will have an idea, and you’ll only have to throw away the first three pages.

William C. Gault

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

William Goldman

Every writer with half a brain knows to surround himself or herself with editors who are smarter, far more articulate and infinitely better looking.

Chris Claremont

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

Substitute “damn” every time you’re inclined to write “very”; your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.

Mark Twain

The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do.

Thomas Jefferson

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

Don’t annoy an author, you’ll end up in their book and you won’t look good.

Lawrence Wray

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