All Writers Write About The Past, And

When I'm Sitting In The Church Alone, I Can Hear Singing Of The Old People. I Can Hear Their Singing And I Can Hear Their Praying, And Sometimes I Hum One Of Their Songs.

I Wanted To Be A Writer. I Wanted To Say Something About Home.

What I Miss Today More Than Anything Else - I Don't Go To Church As Much Anymore - But That Old-time Religion, That Old Singing, That Old Praying Which I Love So Much. That Is The Great Strength Of My Being, Of My Writing.

The Six Golden Rules Of Writing: Read, Read, Read, And Write, Write, Write.
