Literary Quote
It is worth mentioning, for future reference, that the creative power which bubbles so pleasantly in beginning a new book quiets down after a time, and one goes on more steadily. Doubts creep in. Then one becomes resigned. Determination not to give in, and the sense of an impending shape keep one at it more than anything.
Virginia Woolf

I just popped over there. Very, very, very good!
Really good. When I read stuff like that I have to remind myself of what the late Sydney J. Harris said--just because someone is a better writer than you are does not diminish your own writing. But we're here to learn, as well, and maybe somehow I can learn from him how to express in a paragraph what usually takes me two pages.
How super!
"I killed hemingway" is a great title.
