Most so-called writers keep writing and writing with the hope, some day, to find something to say.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Every writer secretly hopes that what he or she has written will endure.
People across the world are yearning to be connected to stories of hope.
I didn't start out writing to give children hope, but I'm glad some of them found it.
Writing is a journey of discovery because until you start, you never know what will happen, and you can be surprised by what you do - expect the unexpected!
Working on 'Raising Hope' is a very hurry-up-and-wait activity, and I just always liked the idea of being as productive as I can be. I write because I don't just want that time to dissolve, where I'm sitting in a trailer staring blankly at the paintings of moccasins that came with the trailer.
It's essential to have sacred time for writing. All successful authors have some daily commitment to keep on-track and moving forward.
I'm one of the writers that would die if I didn't say what I needed to say. For me, it's a matter of survival to write.
Any writer will be happy and good only if they know what they're doing and why they're doing it.
Whether you want to entertain or to provoke, to break hearts or reassure them, what you bring to your writing must consist of your longings and disappointments.
I thought, if ever there were a time to write a book about hope, it's now.
