If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
After a storm comes a calm.
Well done is better than well said.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Never complain and never explain.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
I have two ideas for novels at the moment, neither of them all that conventional, but I'm not ready to choose between them yet, let alone settle down to the process of writing.
