The first, of course, is to read. It’s surprising how many people think they want to be writers but they don’t really like to read books… The second is to write, every day, whether you like it or not. Screw inspiration. –Octavia Butler

Very funny! And then there’s the readers. We love to read and don’t want to write! We leave it to people like you. Reading and writing were both a huge focus in high school English, along with paralleling the junior or senior history class, depending on their grade. I miss the kids and I’m happy to be retired. Have a great day!
