Great Writing Quotes by Author Sue Monk Kidd

Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can’t remember who we are or why we’re here.

I wrote about the raw, unsettled feelings coursing through me, the need to divest and relocate, the urge to radically simplify and distill life into a new, unknown meaning.

I’ve always been a journal-keeper. I’ve always tried to write about how I’m experiencing life, and my feelings and thoughts.

It’s always been my hope that I would write a story that would inspire and would connect with people in a way that would touch hearts.

… many people need, even require, a narrative version of their life. I seem to be one of them. Writing memoir is, in some ways, a work of wholeness.

I sit in my new room and write everything down. My heart never stops talking.
