I have perused the calendar for the University of Toronto, School of Continuing Studies which for the 2007-2008 year is designed around the theme "Learn More." There is a full page photo of David Gilmour, the novelist and instructor. He looks relaxed with a winning smile. He leans slightly with one hand on the back of the chair and the other holding his jacket slung over his shoulder. He is dressed in basic black. The image lends force to the quotation.
Writing's a bit like living, I think. It's what you cut out, not add on that makes it better.
Trying to work those two sentences to see what can be cut *grin* "Writing: it's what you cut out not add on that makes it better."
And so for day 228
