Five Quotes about Writing as Self-Discovery

“Just as a good rain clears the air, a good writing day clears the psyche.” – Julia Cameron

“Any writer worth his salt writes to please himself…It’s a self-exploratory operation that is endless. An exorcism of not necessarily his demon, but of his divine discontent.” – Harper Lee

“Words writers choose are like a glimmering reflection into our souls.” – Lee Bice-Matheson

“Writing is like giving birth to yourself.” – Marty Rubin

“A story is a letter that the author writes to himself, to tell himself things that he would be unable to discover otherwise.” – Carlos Ruiz Zafón
