"To be a writer is to be a shuttlecock in a badminton game, one racquet of which is naive optimism and the other a cynical despair."
- John Jerome, The Writing Trade
Well, Jerome, don't you just speak the truth. And I hope, Jerome, you don't mind me calling you by your surname... it's so much more intriguing than John.
On another note, the twelve-year-old inside me just giggled at the word "shuttlecock". You totally don't get to see that one often enough.
