“Writing has nothing to do with publishing. Nothing. People get totally confused about that. You write because you have to - you write because you can't not write. The rest is show-business. I can't state that too strongly. Just write - worry about the rest of it later, if you worry at all. What matters is what happens to you while you're writing the story, the poem, the play. The rest is show-business.” PeopleIfsWritingI CanMatterStatesPlayStoriesShowsHappensWorryConfusedPublishingWhat MattersShow Business Author:Peter S. Beagle
“I go through the text making sure I haven't used any big words. If I find any fancy adjectives have crept in, I replace them with small words like 'nice' and 'big'. I've liked these words ever since I was told not to use them in English class at school. After that, I check that the sentences are short so as people won't get confused and I shorten all the chapters so they won't get bored. I can't read anything complicated these days, my attention span is too short. Everyone else probably feels the same.” PeopleIfsFeelsI CanUseBigsSchoolUsedAttentionClassNiceHavensComplicatedSentencesChecksThese DaysBoredConfusedFancyChaptersToo ShortAdjectivesAttention SpanEnglish ClassSmall Words Author:Martin Millar
