One of Katrina's favorite quotes is:""You write. That's the hard bit that nobody sees. You write on the good days and you write on the lousy days. Like a shark, you have to keep moving forward or you die. Writing may or may not be your salvation; it might or might not be your destiny. But that does not matter. What matters right now are the words, one after another. Find the next word. Write it down. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat."
-- from Neil Gaiman's NaNoWriMo 2007 pep talk
"I tried to get up, but I fell back down again."
"I know the feeling."

"I think it was Donald Mainstock, the great amateur squash player, who pointed out how lovely I was. Until that time, I think it was safe to say that...Expand for more
I had never really been aware of my own timeless brand of loveliness. But his words smote me because of course you see I am lovely in a fluffy, moist kind of a way... and who would have it otherwise? I walk -- let's be splendid about this -- in a lightly accented cloud of gorgeousness that isn't far short of being, quite simply, terrific. The secret of smooth, almost shiny loveliness of the order of which we're discussing in this simple, frank, creamy soft way doesn't reside in: oils, unguents, balms, ointments, creams, astringents, milks, moisturizers, linements, lubricants, embrocations or balsams -- to be rather divine for just one noble moment. It resides -- and I mean this in a pink, slightly special way -- in one's attitude of mind. To be gorgeous and high and true and fine and fluffy and moist and sticky and lovely, all you have to do is to believe that one is gorgeous and high and true and fine and fluffy and moist and sticky and lovely. And I believe it of myself -- tremulously at first, and then with mounting heat and passion -- because -- stopping off for a second to be super again -- I'm so often told it. That's the secret, really."
-- Stephen Fry, A Bit of Fry and Laurie".
