Running Low

Try to write everyday they say. But I wonder if it is possible to use up all of your creative juice. I wonder if saving it all up and then just letting it burst out when you feel like it is something to try. Perhaps it is even preferrable. But then if learning to write is like working out a muscle, then maybe writing everyday is good for you. Ah well. I'm lazy.

I have two quotes to share. Two random quotes that I picked up from things. I really like them. I hope you do too.

"The thing I find most disturbing about dolls is they refuse to take responsibility for the fires they start."

-Emile from Amped 3

And


"A critic is someone who comes onto the battlefield after the battle is over and shoots the wounded."

- ??? This was in Lamott's enjoyable book on writing. She didn't have the source.


I sold someone a pen today in philosophy. For a dollar. I am now a dollar richer. I will sign autographs tomorrow at noon. But I will only do so much. I get tired.
