All serious daring starts from within.
From Eudora Welty
A good snapshot stops a moment from running away.
The events in our lives happen in a sequence in time, but in their significance to ourselves they find their own order the continuous thread of revelation.
I am a writer who came of a sheltered life. A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts from within.
Beware of a man with manners.
Writers and travelers are mesmerized alike by knowing of their destinations.
Writing a story or a novel is one way of discovering sequence in experience, of stumbling upon cause and effect in the happenings of a writer's own life.
The excursion is the same when you go looking for your sorrow as when you go looking for your joy.
A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts from within.
Writing fiction has developed in me an abiding respect for the unknown in a human lifetime and a sense of where to look for the threads, how to follow, how to connect, find in the thick of the tangle what clear line persists.
