“Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.โ โ Winston Churchill
I can’t believe how accurate this quote is. I feel like I’ve only read Churchill in school and I don’t remember much about him, but this feels very on point when it comes to novel writing. I didn’t realize the level of commitment it took to write a novel, and what’s strange is I’m still here, still writing, and I still want to do it again and again. Maybe I’ll be faster next time. Maybe not. But I’m here for the long run. And I hope it continues to bring me life, or in other words, adds to it.
I’m a writer. How about you?
keep going – whatever stage you’re at, whatever the relationship you have with your work – you’re still going, so you’re still growing! Linda ๐
