the battle to write

The warrior and the artist live by the same code of necessity, which dictates that the battle must be fought anew every day.

Great quote! I am trying to get better about adding words EVERY DAY. I have a hard time doing that during the school year since I am a teacher with two small kids (where does the time gooooooo?) but now that it is summer I am trying hard to stick to it!!! My daughter is currently in a production of Mulan so we are all about battles... this quote is very timely for me! Thanks for sharing :)

I hadn't thought of it that way.

Okay, I suppose I'm a little more motivated now. "The pen is mightier than the sword," but the ultimate weapon must be the keyboard.

Dangerous- glad it was timely.

Christine - can you see us marching into battle with keyboards?
