| 1570683909511192577 | Be wise, because the world needs wisdom. If you cannot be wise, pretend to be someone who is wise and then just behave like they would. NEIL GAIMAN #amwriting #writing #writinglife | 162 |
| 1568283096620859397 | If people cannot #write well, they cannot think well, and if they cannot think well, others will do their thinking for them. GEORGE ORWELL #amwriting #writing #writingadvice https://t.co/Pue4ZMy6Nr | 133 |
| 1638088052823437312 | Don’t be seduced into thinking that that which does not make a profit is without value. ARTHUR MILLER #amwriting #drama #writing #writingadvice https://t.co/6p4dL5EF2W | 88 |
| 1576663312086929408 | There are no rules. It’s amazing how willing people are to tell you that you aren’t a real #writer unless you conform to their clichés and their rules. My advice? Reject rules and critics.... Define yourself. Do it your way. Make yourself the writer of your dreams. ANNE RICE https://t.co/FJuG1So34x | 79 |
| 1637061285392031744 | As a #writer you are free. You are about the freest person that ever was. Your freedom is what you have bought with your solitude, your loneliness. URSULA K. LE GUIN #amwriting #writerslife https://t.co/PAl5uSWGXa | 65 |
| 1641953528406245376 | The most regretful people on earth, are those who felt the call to creative work, who felt their own creative power restive and uprising, and gave to it neither power nor time. MARY OLIVER #amwriting #writerslife https://t.co/k1ZiTZophS | 62 |
| 1573598113016606721 | I do a lot of #rewriting. It’s very painful. You know it’s finished when you can’t do anything more to it, though it’s never exactly the way you want it. JAMES BALDWIN #amwriting #writing #writinglife https://t.co/RV7c183yX2 | 62 |
| 1566048368211546112 | When a child is born the first thing the child requires is safety and love. The next thing that the child asks for is, “Tell me a #story.” SALMAN RUSHDIE #amwriting #writerslife https://t.co/Oup0zN0zlq | 58 |
| 1644611039332540416 | The first draft is just you telling yourself the #story. TERRY PRATCHETT #amwriting #fiction #writing https://t.co/WEghtqmyz9 | 55 |
| 1574504084534480896 | There was a moment when I changed from an amateur to a professional. I assumed the burden of a profession, which is to #write even when you don’t want to, don’t much like what you’re #writing, and aren’t writing particularly well. AGATHA CHRISTIE #amwriting #writerslife https://t.co/AqdNWLBGFr | 51 |

| 1631459380120940545 | Here’s something important to remember about #dialogue: No one in real life ever starts a sentence with, “Dammit.” AARON SORKIN #screenwriting #writing | 25 |
| 1573945400918245378 | Colons are not merely introductory but presentational. They say: Here comes something! Think of colons as little trumpet blasts, attention-getting and ear-catching. Also loud. So don’t use so many of them that you give your reader a headache. @BCDreyer #amwriting #punctuation | 14 |
| 1647751733295316993 | No one over the age of ten who is not actively engaged in the writing of a comic book should end any sentence with a double exclamation point or double question mark. @BCDreyer #amwriting #punctuation #writing | 13 |
| 1571604998395375616 | Anything’s possible if you’ve got enough nerve. J.K. ROWLING #amwriting #writerslife https://t.co/UugNtod2xH | 13 |
| 1603359224393670656 | Read a lot. #Reading really helps. Read anything you can get your hands on. J.K. ROWLING #amwriting #writing #writingadvice https://t.co/Nlf7t1QQLM | 11 |
| 1607345612302737414 | I feel my great strength as a writer is being alone. Aloneness is a condition of #writing. You look at all the #writers that have come up with something worth it’s own salt and they’re utterly alone, you know...all of them. SAM SHEPARD #amwriting #writerslife https://t.co/rPcfdfNPuZ | 10 |
| 1604944665840590855 | A first line should open up your rib cage. It should reach in and twist your heart backward. It should suggest that the world will never be the same again. COLUM McCANN #amwriting #writing #writetip https://t.co/U0tAMrLgdQ | 9 |
| 1630553417239212034 | You like to #write. It’s the single most important quality for someone who wants to be a #writer. But not in itself enough. HARUKI MURAKAMI #amwriting #writerslife https://t.co/K8b63PoCNZ | 9 |
| 1574715481667211266 | An essential element of any #art is risk. If you don’t take a risk then how are you going to make something really beautiful, that hasn’t been seen before? FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA #screenwriting #directing #writing https://t.co/Ve8RiZXHv4 | 8 |
| 1574322898944278531 | A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to #write #fiction. VIRGINIA WOOLF https://t.co/WPB3Icvi5i | 8 |

| 1637182086221266944 | If you have faith in your #writing, it’s easy. It’s when you remove that faith that things become difficult—when you start to think, this is stupid, this is idiotic, this is worthless, and so on. That’s the real fight: to overcome those kinds of thoughts. KARL OVE KNAUSGAARD https://t.co/VJ18ygs69Z | 8 |

| 1611165659345420290 | James Joyce is a good model for #punctuation. He keeps it to an absolute minimum. There’s no reason to blot the page up with weird little marks. I mean, if you #write properly you shouldn’t have to punctuate. CORMAC McCARTHY #amwriting #writing #writingadvice https://t.co/Ck5ts5FFIK | 7 |

| 1561609113326469121 | I always wanted to be the first person to use a four-letter word on the musical stage. That’s why [in West Side Story] I wrote, “Gee, Officer Krupke, fuck you!” And one of the co-producers practically fainted when she heard me play it…. So I had to change it.
