~anonymous "I cannot think of any work that could be more agreeable and fun than making books for children." ~Arnold Lobel "Never believe the first twenty publishers who reject your work. For the twenty-first, submit something new." ~Garth Nix "We have read your manuscript with boundless delight. If we were to publish your paper, it would be impossible for us to publish any work of lower standard. And as it is unthinkable that in the next thousand years we shall see its equal, we are, to our regret, compelled to return your devine composition, and to beg you a thousand times to overlook our short sight and timidity." ~Rejection slip from a Chinese economic journal "You have doubts. You hate it. You love it. You discuss it with your editors. You change it. Finally, at one point you just know it's right. After that it goes very quickly." ~Eric Carle "A writer is somebody for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people." ~Thomas Mann "Success is going from failure to failure without a loss of enthusiasm." ~Sir Winston Churchill "Never underestimate the intelligence of your audience." ~Jon Scieszka "Though I write a lot, and love to write, it never seems to come with ease." ~Avi "I always do the first line well, but I have trouble with the others." ~Molière "It takes a heap of loafing to write a book." ~Gertrude Stein |
