“I know publishing now more as an author than with occasional peaks inside those elite offices than as an industry insider. It was difficult publishing a novel the first time around, while working behind the scenes, knowing all that has to happen to make a book a success and to still make the leap as an author.” KnowsFirstsStillsBookHappensDifficultBehindsNovelKnowingIndustrySceneOfficeFirst TimeLeapElitesPublishingOccasionalBehind The ScenesInsidersWorking Behind The Scenes Author:Jennifer Gilmore

“A wounded deer leaps highest, I've heard the hunter tell; 'Tis but the ecstasy of death, And then the brake is still. The smitten rock that gushes, The trampled steel that springs,, A cheek is always redder Just where the hectic stings Mirth is mail of anguish, In which its cautious arm Lest anybody spy the blood And, you're hurt exclaim.” StillsHurtHeardBloodRocksArmsHighestSpringAbuseLeapEcstasyMailCheeksWoundedSteelAnguishHuntersSpyCautiousDeerMirthBrakeHecticSmitten Book:The Works of Emily Dickinson Source: The Works of Emily Dickinson
“Do they still call it infatuation? That magic ax that chops away the world in one blow, leaving only the couple standing there trembling? Whatever they call it, it leaps over anything, takes the biggest chair, the largest slice, rules the ground wherever it walks, from a mansion to a swamp, and its selfishness is its beauty.... People with no imagination feed it with sex -- the clown of love. They don't know the real kinds, the better kinds, where losses are cut and everybody benefits. It takes a certain intelligence to love like that -- softly, without props.” PeopleKnowsWorldLoveKindStillsRealCertainSexImaginationLossWalksCuttingMagicCoupleBenefitsStandingLeavingBlowSelfishnessChairsLeapInfatuationClownTremblingPropsMansionsSwampsStanding There Author:Toni Morrison
