Summer Friend: Kim Kasch and The Kasch Family Players

Kim Kasch and The Kasch Family Players

I spent some time on fellow writer Kim Kasch's blog today and found some great stuff!

First off, thanks for the Kreativ Blogger Award, Kim! I will try to think of seven interesting things about myself and post them next time. In the meantime, I nominate everyone in my sidebar!

Secondly, Kim posted some useful tips on MS Word here.

And best of all, Kim and her good-looking family did a great video on using voice when writing:

Thoughts on Writing

"If the doctor told me I had six minutes to live, I'd type a little faster." --Isaac Asimov

"It took me fifteen years to discover I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up, because by that time I was too famous." --Robert Benchley

"When writers meet, they are truculent, indifferent, or over-polite. Then comes the inevitable moment. A shows B that he has read something of B's. Will B show A? If not, then A hates B; if yes, then all is well." --Cyril Connolly

"Yes, it's hard to write, but it's harder not to." --Carl Van Doren

"Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead." --Gene Fowler

"I always write a good first line, but I have trouble writing the others." --MoliFre

"What no wife of a writer can ever understand is that a writer is working when he's staring out of the window." --Burton Rascoe

"Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else." --Gloria Steinem

"I love being a writer; what I can't stand is the paperwork." --Peter De Vries

"This morning I took out a comma and this afternoon I put it back in again." --Oscar Wilde

"I will tell you a story." --Jesus (Matthew 21:28, CEV)
