I’m going through my self-publishing list archives (because now I need the information I saved the messages for, also I’m looking at website designs) and I found this short list of “inspirational quotes for writers” that Shel Horowitz posted:<\/p>\n

“If you wait for inspiration to write, you’re not
\na writer, you’re a waiter.\u201d \u2013 Dan Poynter<\/p>\n

\u201cIf my doctor told me I had only 6 months left to
\nlive, I\u2019d type a little faster.\u201d – Isaac Asimov<\/p>\n

When asked the secret to finishing a book,
\nbest-selling author Bryce Courtenay (“The Power
\nof One”) said, \u201cBum glue!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI write when I\u2019m inspired, and I see to it that
\nI\u2019m inspired at 9 am every morning.\u201d – Peter De
\nVries<\/p>\n

\u201cI have to block out ego, the piece of me that\u2019s
\ngoing, \u2018How am I doing, champ?\u2019 That has to do
\nwith the finished work which is a separate
\ncreature. I need to be still enough to hear the
\nvoice that tells me what I’m supposed to do
\nnext.” – Sue Grafton<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I did pretty well, considering I started
\nout with nothing but a bunch of blank paper.\u201d –
\nSteve Martin<\/p>\n

\u201cInspiration usually comes during work, not before it.\u201d – Madeleine
\nL\u2019Engle<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
