Quotes by Janet Burroway

Most writing is done between the mind and the hand, not between the hand and the page.

Good girls like myself need subversion. Being solemn, I aspire to comedy. Being a novelist, I aspire to the musical. Being organized, I aspire to luminous chaos. Loving the power of grammar and the fine distinctions of language, I seek the part of the mind I didnt know was there, the part sheer, no-manfathomed, cliffs of fall.
