Then go to people who influenced that writer, or those who were related to him, and your world builds together in an organic way that is really marvelous." Joseph Campbell
"Don't give up on reading just because you tried one or two books that didn't do it for you. Keep trying, and I'm sure you will find your niche or genre. When you do, you'll be so glad you did!" Wes

ReplyDeleteTrue. I had to chuckle when I saw Woody Allen's, he is quite right. Sometimes you talk to people about a book they read and you wonder how far they got ... LOL

But my favourite quote is by Joseph Campbell, he spoke to my heart.
