Writers' Digest, October 2004, pages 26 to 33, has a collection of short "nuggets of wisdom" related to getting published. Maria Schneider is the author of the compilation. Take a deep breath, and here we go:
"The author, through her characters, must speak to her readers human to human, with all the tears and joy real people experience." G. Miki Hayden
All the world's a stage... and the writer has more than one character to set on their stage! What do you think -- do you think about writing as a dialogue, as talking to your readers, as helping them see and feel tears and joy, up close and personal?

It's only a paper moon? But it sheds such a nice light on our affairs?
