Eeyore's Writing Meter



"This writing business--pencils and what-not--is overrated. Silly stuff. Nothing in it." 
                                                                                       --Eeyore, from A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh

Where did the needle for the Eeyore writing-meter register for you this week, with a tilt toward gloomy or sunny? Mine? Mostly sunny but with a few (plot) clouds. But, like Eeyore also says, "One can't complain. I have my friends. Somebody spoke to me only yesterday."

Wishing you more sunshine than not in your corner of the writing world. Happy weekend!

Favorite Quote of the Week

"A novel is a mirror walking along the main road." --Stendhal

I've found myself thinking about this concept a lot this week. *Insightful* don't you think?

Open a Window: Thoughts on Scene


"Now, what is it which makes a scene interesting?
If you see a man coming through a doorway, it means nothing.
If you see him coming through a window--that is at once interesting." --Billy Wilder

Just a tidbit of inspiration for those who might be focusing on scene this upcoming week (like I plan to do :-). Happy rest of the weekend to all who happen to stop by...
