The Act of Writing - Anne Lamott

This quote was added by boonsgroove22
Writing has so much to give, so much to teach, so many surprises. That thing you have to force yourself to do (the actual act of writing) turns out to be the best part. It's like discovering that while you thought you needed the tea ceremony for the caffeine, what you really needed was the tea ceremony. The act of writing turns out to be its own reward.
