In the writing process, the more the story cooks, the better. The brain works for you even when you are at rest. - Doris Lessing - Keep Writing.

We may not always know how an idea came to us, but a writer is someone who feels compelled to bring the story, the characters, and the words to life. - Wrtr #amwriting #author #writer Be #writing ~ #authorsky
