Get inspired by the world's best writers.
Quotes illustration
“You become a writer by writing. There is no other way. So do it. Do it more. Do it again. Do it better. Fail. Fail better.”

More from Margaret Atwood

“If you really do want to write, and you're struggling to get started, you're afraid of something. What is that fear?”
“What you want on the first page is something that is going to beckon the reader in.”
“A word after a word after a word is power.”
“What you read is as important as what you write.”
“Nobody knows where ideas come from, but let us say, if you immerse yourself in something, whether it be music, painting, or writing…you are going to get ideas about it. But you have to do the immersing first. You're not just sitting there, waiting for lightning to strike.”
