Opis

Being a writer is one of the most rewarding, and most difficult, professions a person can pursue. Writers can work for years without any reward other than intrinsic satisfaction. Negative criticism and non-supportive family/friends intensify the frustration a writer feels so that, at times, it's almost impossible to keep that inner flame of creativity burning.... This is where 1,000 Quotes For Writers comes in. Compiled specifically to inspire your writing and fire your imagination -- whether you write short stories, poetry, scripts, novels, nonfiction, blogs, or post daily on social media. The 298-page volume is divided into 60+ categories with more than a dozen quotes in each to match your mood, spur you to break through a writing block, discover new ideas for plot/setting/characters/resolution...or just sit down and read random pages, reacquainting yourself with lines from a fabulous array of authors... Rumi, Tolstoy, Dumas, Chekhov, Jong, Shaw, Wilder, O'Neill, Cocteau, Ionesco, Frost, Schiller, the Brontes, Babel, Gogol, Dostoyevsky, Milosz, Atwood, Angelou, Plath...and dozens of others. The quotes are categorized under: solitude, imagination, what is past, soldiers, death, war, the Victorians, the British, the Americans, the French, the Russians, the Germans, life & hope, truths, women, happiness, winter, summer, friends, always reading..., the poets, the dramatists, the novelists, dark, light.... and many, many more.
