“Cats have a way of always having been there even if they've only just arrived. They move in their own personal time.They act as if the human world is one they just happened to have stopped off in, on their way to somewhere that is possibly a whole lot more interesting.” The Unadulterated Cat

"Read other things; read westerns, read history, read anything that seems interesting, because if you only read fantasy and then you start to write fantasy, all you're going to do is recycle the same old stuff and move it around a bit. Stories of imagination tend to upset those without one." — #TerryPratchett
