You know you've felt the same way sometimes. And so have many other fine and discriminating minds! I love collecting quotes -- especially ones about writing. Below are some of my favorites about the pain of writing. Do you have any to share?
How to start a novel: First thing, defrost the refrigerator. (Ernest Hemingway)
Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank piece of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead. (Gene Fowler)
Good stories are not written. They are rewritten. (Phyllis Whitney)
I only write when I'm inspired, and I make sure I'm inspired every morning at 9 a.m.
(Peter DeVries)
Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working. (Pablo Picasso -- Hey, it applies to writing, too.)
Dear Editor
Why do you keep sending my stories back? You're supposed to print them and make me rich and famous. What is it with you? (Snoopy)
