Anthony Scott Glenn answered Victoria Limbert's question, 'The Passage of Time' with this, 'Sometimes it is the journey that is the most important part'. (I've taken it out of context)
Is the Journey the most important part of your writing endeavours or is the Arriving? The Arriving will be different things to different people. It might be getting published for some. It might be the satisfaction of hearing people make positive comments about your work. For others still it might the act of creation that is the important part. I would like to know what you find the most important part of writing.
Thank you Isabella. And I so do that too. Although I should get me a torch as usually I write in the dark - And that just doesn't work - Messy scribbles are often unidentifiable.
But with any journey, like the race, the end does come, and it doesn't matter where you place. It's always the anticipation.
Victoria, I agree with you about Romeo and Juliet. A perfect ending *sighs*.
Hi Frank
Maybe I inspried you to ask the question 'which authors do you like best and why?' and you could take something I've said wildly out of context. I wonder what that would be. :-p
To everyone else, I'm hoping that more people in the WAYB community will give their response to my original question. I'd like to know what you all think.
The Da Vinci Code is rubbish. But its just a book and people read books like they follow football teams. Wolves are rubbish but they have a great solid following. Man Utd are winners but there are vast number of football fans who hate them.
Dan Brown can give a lecture about Marketing and selling and pushing the product
to the end user.
But I do not believe he can teach anybody on W&A about writing.
There is commercial success and great writing and sometimes you can get them together.
But most times you get Kathy Price
I like Bernard Cornwall and Don Winslow and Lee Child and the Raymond Feist & Janny Wurts trilogy - May be we can get a a who we like list going.
