"There are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents ... and only one for birthday presents, you know."
- Lewis Carroll
Today is blogging friend Stephen Parrish's birthday. "Today" is a relative term, as Stephen lives in Germany. Novelist, husband, father and a generous friend to many, he always takes time to celebrate the successes of his friends. Today I wish him many happy returns and a wonderful year.
If you haven't visited Stephen before, this post will give you some idea of who he is, and so will this one.
Stop by and wish him a happy birthday!
Happy Birthday Stephen!
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
