Writing in the dark is hard, but you have to light your own candle and do it anyway.
~ A.d. Posey
Writing is like breathing for my soul.
Art is everywhere.
All art is a form of vulnerability because at least part of the artist goes into the piece.
Art is life.
Every work of art tells a story.
Style jazzes up your canvas.
Film is the ultimate canvas, the elixir of art, and the magic of life.
If rewriting equals rereading, we must logically conclude that writing is reading. If this is indeed the case, how could we possibly write under a ban on reading? The only way left is mouth-to-mouth – poets and storytellers recite their pieces and before we can commit them to memory, everything vanishes into thin air.
~ Kyoko Yoshida
The only thing a closed book is good for is a table that wobbles. Be an open book.
The more you read, the more you write, and the more you free yourself to do so, the better writer you will become.
Cry while writing it, and readers will cry while reading it.
Reading sparks writing.
How you feel after reading something indicates not what you’ve read but where you are at.
Reading opens up other pockets of the mind.
History in the storyteller's hand was a potent force indeed,....
~ Kate Morton
Stop making excuses and start making history.
Storytelling is ultimately the only way that we know besides song, dance, painting, and music to share with our tribesmen what it means to be human, express the indefinable feelings that unite humankind.
~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Creativity is nature. Nature is creativity.
We encounter truth within.
Walk into the unknown with what you know in your heart.
The flower doth not worry, and the tree doth not waver.
Love is the answer.
Explore your own peace.
Take a deep breath. Inhale peace. Exhale happiness.
In love there is truth, and in truth there is peace.
Find peace in knowing.
Storytellers are the most powerful people on earth. They might not be the best paid-- but they are the most powerful. Storytellers have the power to move the human heart-- and there is no greater power on earth.
~ Laurie H. Hutzler
Hold on to your heart and life will give you wings.
Gratefulness heightens awareness.
Your life should reflect your heart.
Lead with your heart. The rest will follow.
Listen to what speaks to your heart.
Create from the heart.
I think today is a day for the heart. What do you think?
Speak from the heart and feel your tension melt away.
As long as it comes from the heart, in the end, it will be good.
Pour your heart onto the page.
Write truthfully, write from the heart, and your words will live.
The heart of a story gives it life.
