I think the Maya proverb

 I think the Maya participated in the invention of writing much earlier than thought. As cities began in Mesoamerica around this time, writing was a part of that, just like public art and presentation of political ideology. It's all part of a package.

 Between 200 and 300 A.D. is when we become literate in Maya writing. It's definitely writing, though, no question about that. Some of these signs are consistent with Maya writing for the next 1,000 years.

 Writing books isn't a drastic departure from writing for the stage. I've always written in the long format, five, eight, 10-minute pieces rather than one-liners, so since writing books, the process hasn't changed much. A piece in my live routine can end up as part of one of my HBO specials, and it can also end up in one of the books.
  George Carlin

 We aren't really doing anything different because we've had a strong writing curriculum all along. What we have found is our students are doing well on the writing part of the new SAT.

 The most embarrassing thing (in the Times' package) is that (Miller's editors) told her to stop writing about that but she kept writing about it, anyway.

 It's been fun. I've only done half the movie and it's crazy. They're always writing. They're writing and writing and writing. You work for four hours in two days and it's done. It's pretty much nothing. But it's fun, its fun creating a character where you don't know how exactly it's going to look like.
  Justin Timberlake

 When I first began publishing, I was writing short stories and novels about subjects that only men were writing about -- violence and men's lives,
  Joyce Carol Oates

 The political parties and groups that did not take part in the election should be invited to participate in the writing of the permanent constitution.

 We're pretty regular guys. Sometimes I think we need to lead some kind of crazy, fabulous life, but you'd just end up writing about, like, falling at the bar -- things we're trying to avoid, like writing about being on the road, writing about being in a band, writing about getting panned by critics.

 Planning to write is not writing. Outlining, researching, talking to people about what you're doing, none of that is writing. Writing is writing.
  E. L. Doctorow

 I loved the writing part of it, but the learning curve on the actual filmmaking was steeper than I thought,

 When I'm writing about reality, I'm writing about death. When I'm writing fiction, I'm writing about life.

 If you're serious about publishing and you want your stories published, do your research. You need to start being a part of an organization [writing group] that's part of your craft.

 It was hard to move ahead career-wise when my children were younger. I worked part-time. When I went back on track, it was harder because even though I worked part-time, people assumed that I had been out of the game. It's a little more open now that my children are older. I can focus more on my research or on writing articles than I could before.

 I enjoy co-writing. I've been co-writing for a long time now. I'm sure the pendulum will swing back to writing alone. For the moment I just enjoy working with someone else.
