Today’s Writing Quote
“If I could say anything,
it’s keep going.
Don’t go back and fix that scene,
that dialogue.
Just write the next word.”
— Ann Hamilton Phelan
Today’s Inspirational Video
“Steal Away” is an old African-American slave song and is thought to have been used as a code related to escape attempts. Sung here in a recording from 1957 by the great Mahalia Jackson, then joined by Nat King Cole. What an amazing voice she had!

UPDATE: How about some Yeats for inspiration?
That was shared in the Facebook group by Lindsay McRae, who is today’s recipient of the Trumbo Award!
