If there’s a book you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.
Toni Morrison
One should begin any work of fiction with the longest, most convoluted sentence imaginable, then try to beat that record.

You don’t start out writing good stuff. You start out writing crap and thinking it’s good stuff, and then gradually you get better at it.

Agatha Christie
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
Maya Angelou
Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.
Louis L’Amour

James Thurber
Creativity is contagious, pass it on.
Albert Einstein
To write successfully, one requires only a sharp pencil, a piece of paper and a hot cup of tea.

Poetry is when an emotion has found it’s thought, and the thought has found words.
Robert Frost
Writing lets you break boundaries because you can go anywhere you wish.
The voice in my stories is sometimes authentic, sometimes it is foreign.
Sometimes it is old. Sometimes it is new. Sometimes my writing is Muslim, other times it is Sikh and many times, it is no one’s religion because as long as I am telling the story,
I am in control.
I am whoever I want to be.
Farzana Hakim, Book Challenge Author
