Sentence of the Day: Figures he'd get the broken-springed coach with the one-armed handler. Blasted luck.

Author Sinclair Lewis was once invited to speak about the craft of writing. Standing in front of a classroom full of students, he asked, "How many of you here are really serious about being writers?"

Hands shot up all over the room.

"Well then," Lewis asked, "why aren't you all home writing?"

And then he walked out the door.

So....what's your excuse? Thanksgiving is over. There's only 4 weeks until Christmas. Does that mean writing should atrophy in the rush of the holidays?

What would Sinclair say?
