Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;Anyone who writes well, I suspect, writes primarily by ear, listening to the music of words. That means we should be careful what language we allow to tune our ears. If you&#039;ve grown up in the midst of gifted talkers, then you&#039;re in luck; but if the talk you hear comes mainly from television or movies, if you read mostly junk, or if you don&#039;t read much at all, you&#039;re not likely to develop a keen ear for your own writing. You won&#039;t be able to hear the clunks and cliches. You won&#039;t know whether your sentences are breathing.&rdquo;<br /> -Scott Russell Sanders
