Andrew McAleer quotes:

There is a big difference between being lonely and being alone. I am alone when I write, but I am rarely lonely.

Your passion for words & sentence structure should equal a painter's passion for color & brushstroke.

Trends come and go, and if you try to latch onto a trend it will likely be passé by the time you have completed your manuscript.

Like a true artist, never be satisfied that your writing cannot be improved.
