Regarding writing fiction as compared with writing the truth, I like these two quotes:
"There was things he stretched, but mainly he told the truth." ~ Mark Twain
"It (writing) doesn't have to be the truth, just your version of it, written down." ~ Virginia Woolf

"Write drunk; edit sober." Ernest Hemingway
ReplyDeleteI like this Dennis. It's one way to keep the Inner Editor occupied so that the Writing can take place.
