Sunday Short Picks #1

by

sundayshortpicks.jpgSunday short picks are basically little snippets of things I find that I’d like to post. It could be a quote, a YouTube video, a comic…pretty much anything. I’d just like Sunday morning posts to be something you can sit back and enjoy in passing, like your favourite column in the newspaper. And so, here is the first ever Sunday Short Pick:

“[We] are only as strong as our will-power. Many of us could stick ourselves in an arctic igloo to write and yet still manage to find distractions (examining snowflakes can be so fascinating).� – Rib Davis, The Writer’s Ultimate Workspace

    That quote is very true. LOL.
    I read another one on the same subject that basically said ( paraphrased) “Your housework is never more interesting than when you are supposed to be writing a novel.”

    Hahaha. I like that one. :) And it’s true! There are so many ways we distract ourselves.
