Mary Pipher, in her book, Writing to Save the World, says, "Our goal as writers is to convey to readers the greatest meaning with the most precise images and the fewest words."
Mary also says, "Your desire to communicate originates from some internal combustion of intellect, heart and experience."
I reviewed Mary's book last year. The intention of today's post was to extract two quotes from Mary's work that have the potential to pierce through the white noise of Twitter traffic and inspire those of us who love to write.
This is a great book and I highly recommend that you engage yourself with it...that is, if you love to write.
