Almost Daily Quote


"Almost" every day, Art posts a quote on the Sun Belt list serv. Here is todays:

Writers write to learn, to explore, to discover, to hear themselves say what they do not expect to say.
~Donald Murray

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Donald Murray, he is a hero in the writing project world. He was one of the forerunners in the cultivation of process writing pedagogy. He was a journalist for the Boston Herald and has written several books. He died this past year.

At Sun Belt, we are reading one of his books: Crafting a Life.
