There's nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein. ~Walter Wellesley "Red" Smith
The urge to write just up and went. Away. I have no idea where it went, but wherever, it is far away from me.
You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you. ~Ray Bradbury
I'm pretty sure that Bradbury is on to something. I paused for just a moment, turned my back and reality sure enough did grab me and fill my soul with.. well...reality.
Writing is easy: All you do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead. ~Gene Fowler
I love to write. Sometimes though there is such muck to wade through to reach anything of interest that nothing flows on the paper.
If I'm trying to sleep, the ideas won't stop. If I'm trying to write, there appears a barren nothingness. ~Carrie Latet
It's been a month since the urge last struck me.
Today I feel a small twinge. It's there. It's thinking about coming out. A couple of nights without sleep always help that along.
I will set myself up with all the necessities... caffeine (Tim Horton's Iced Capp)... food (a veggie wrap sounds tasty... music (cues NORMAL playlist on itunes)... turn off internet...

Awesome quotes! Especially the one by Fowler. Good luck on your writing, and I hope it doesn't involve blood!
