Three Day Quote Challenge-Day Two

“What appeals to me most is an idea expressed by Eluard. He has a line about there being another world, but it’s in this one. And Raymond Queneau said the world is not what it seems–but it isn’t anything else, either. These two ideas are the bedrock of my approach. If a book is only what it seems to be about, then somehow the author has failed.”-Edward Gorey (in The Lion and the Unicorn, Number I, 1978)

 I share this philosophy.

Robert McAlmon Quote

This quote comes as no surprise to anyone familiar with the sidebar. Creatively, it has been my guiding light for more than a decade. I think about it nearly every time I sit down to write.

Do you have any writing tenets? Please share yours in the comments section!
