“Let your writing reflect only the wisdom of pain or of delight which life
has most deeply revealed to you. Nothing else is worth your time or the time
of any reader. Poetry’s first requirement is sincerity and the single aim
should be to write as though there were no audience other than the writer’s
own heart”
-William Percy

Wow.
As a writer by profession…I’m not sure that I have that luxury. But it’s compelling, nonetheless.

As we Poets from a Smalltown were taught, “Good writing is honest writing.”
