Back to photostream

she saw, she sensed, she said

. . . going to be spending some time in this quaint little attic room, so please bear with me . . .

After memory bits have sifted through the sieve and first impressions remain strong, I keep returning here in my thoughts. I know my sister joins me. This was probably the smallest room in the large summer home, but the most intimate. On the other hand, it wasn't one I might have slept in, as the dust mites seem to have taken up residency over the years! But each one had its own story to tell. I spent the most time here, photographing details which I will post during the week. Perhaps this will become my next book, not sure. Anyway, sit back, open up the windows for some salt air, and breathe along with me, the best is yet to be!

 

“The good writer, the great writer, has what I have called the three S's:

the power to see,

to sense,

and to say.

That is, he is perceptive,

he is feeling,

and he has the power to express in language what he observes and reacts to.”

~ Lawrence Clark Powell ~

 

“A writer is dear and necessary for us

only in the measure of which he reveals to us

the inner workings of his very soul.”

~ Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy ~

 

“A writer needs three things,

experience,

observation,

and imagination,

any two of which,

at times any one of which,

can supply the lack of the others.”

~ William Faulkner ~
